I bumped into this same problem, because I did an upgrade over a 3.4
system, where bash was already installed. After I deleted the old
libhistory.so.3, I could not start bash again. At first, I thought
that the problem could be an outdated ldconfig database, but it
seems that there is a library version mismatch. Then, the solution
is to recompile the bash port or install the bash package built for
FreeBSD 4.0.
