History bug still present in 3.0.3-test5

I reported some while ago that zsh was failing to save history when it exits
due to a dropped connection.
This is still happening.
To see it, run
xterm -e zsh -l
and then use the window manager to kill the xterm. The $HISTFILE file will
be truncated to zero size.
I think the problem may be that zsh begins to save history when it gets the
EOF on standard input, and then exits without finishing the job because it
gets a SIGHUP immediately thereafter. However, I can't be sure that this is
the problem.
