Just a simple thought:
Could it be something like HISTIGNORE or 'ignorespace' in HISTCONTROL?
After I had one too many lines disappear to "ignorespace", I decided
it wasn't too worth it.


If I type history at this point, I'll see most of my command history
... with an empty line in place of the line I was hoping to repeat.
The command is gone. My only option is to remember what I typed, and
type it all again."
