Perhaps so, but to me it seems that OP was asking to turn off the
history recall in the current session itself.  In bash & zsh,
setting HISTSIZE may be of some value.

I have not looked in the portupgrade source.  Nonetheless, a
quick+dirty, and heavy handed too (if the b2evolution port is large)
would be to deinstall b2evolution & install it again, possibly
remove|update old dependencies too if you like.
