Hi, I applied these patches against the source for our "emacs-next" package, which gives version 30.0.50. However, something basic seems to be broken. If I do this basic procedure...

```
cd ~/local
EMACSLOADPATH=/home/christopher/local/share/emacs/site-lisp:/home/christopher/local/share/emacs/30.0.50/lisp ./bin/emacs -Q &
```

Then, M-x eshell-command echo blah RET

Under my normal 29.3 I expect to see "blah" echoed to the message area, but instead I get this error:

> Debugger entered--Lisp error: (wrong-type-argument number-or-marker-p nil)
>   eshell-add-input-to-history("echo hello")
>   eshell-read-command()

>   command-execute(execute-extended-command)
