Yes, 'cold did already run.

I think putting the history initialization into bootmessage instead is the 
right place.

The other thing that is difficult to turn off is the loading of ~/.config/
gforthrc0.  This can be controlled with a shell variable, but e.g. if you have 
your sever script using #! <path to gforth>, you can't turn off this 
environment variable, because only one extra argument is allowed, so

#! /usr/bin/env GFORTH_ENV=off <path to gforth>

is not valid.
