You need to change call-interactively in callint.c in order to fix the
test case from your OP though, right?  This part:

      /* Don't keep command history around forever.  */
      if (INTEGERP (Vhistory_length) && XINT (Vhistory_length) > 0)
        {
          Lisp_Object teml = Fnthcdr (Vhistory_length, Vcommand_history);
          if (CONSP (teml))
            XSETCDR (teml, Qnil);
        }
