Zsh crashes on `compadd` when using `_history` completer & zstyle `ignored-patterns` is set



*Given*

   - A .zshrc file containing the following lines:

HISTFILE=${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zsh_history
HISTSIZE=2000
SAVEHIST=1000
autoload -Uz compinit
compinit
zstyle ':completion:*' ignored-patterns ''


   - A `${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zsh_history` file that contains >1000 lines of
   history.

*When*

   1. I start a new shell with `zsh -dxv &>! ~/zsh-debug.log`
   2. I press `^[/` to activate `_history-complete-older` (or anything else
   that uses the `_history` completer).

*Then*

   - Zsh crashes with the message `zsh: segmentation fault`.
   - `~/zsh-debug.log` ends in the following lines:

*Additional notes:*

If I

   - remove the line `zstyle ':completion:*' ignored-patterns ''` or
   - change it to `zstyle ':completion:*:^(history-words)' ignored-patterns
   ''` or
   - remove the histfile,

then the crash no longer happens.

It doesn't matter what the actual value of `ignored-patterns` is. Whenever
it is used with the `_history` completer, Zsh crashes on the same line.
