This patch separates the memory allocations into those
used initially from those used in later reallocations.
Thus, we can reduce that iterative realloc() overhead.
Additionally, we'll correct a long standing oops where
multiple history_info structures were created at 'new'
time when only one should have been allocated (jeeze).
[ originally the allocation was strangely based upon ]
[ number of 'items' (???) & later a #define constant ]
