Very strange. Using these here (slightly modified to allow for different files)
has no problems on three quite different machines Ryzen 5, Intel Pentium - both
on devuan, ancient eeepc 901 - older debian :(

However, the latest 'master' has an extra check to ensure no attempt can be made
to read a non-existent history entry.

Incidentally, when you have:
 .local/share/yoshimi/recent

then:
 .config/yoshimi/yoshimi.history

can be permanently removed. It is the older version before we went fully XDG
compliant, so is only read if the new one does not exist.

Say you have a poem and I have a tune.
Exchange them and we can both have a poem, a tune, and a song.
