Subject: [2.6.35-rc6+] zsh: corrupt history file /home/wfg/.zsh_history

Hello,

After upgrading kernel, I got this message on every boot: 

        zsh: corrupt history file /home/wfg/.zsh_history

The .zsh_history seem to always contain some rubbish text/binary
viminfo data. The content is different on each boot. Last working
kernel is 2.6.33. The kernel is built from Jul 30's Linus tree.

$ grep /home /proc/$$/mountinfo
29 15 8:3 / /home rw,relatime - ext3 /dev/sda3 rw,errors=continue,commit=360,barrier=0,data=journal

$ dmesg
[   23.534259] EXT3-fs (sda3): using internal journal
[   23.534607] EXT3-fs (sda3): mounted filesystem with journal data mode
[   23.745891] EXT3-fs: barriers not enabled

$ hdparm -i /dev/sda
