History Directory

(chuckle, true)

We have a program that periodically forks a child process to parse and evaluate
some data.  After the evaluation is done, the parent process moves the results
to a history directory.

Well, that is how it is supposed to work.  But a programming bug was causing
the child process to crash as soon as it started up.

After much head-scratching, one of the programmers said, "I know what's wrong.
The parent can't create the child because it's had a hist-directory!"
