NetBSD's /bin/sh is a mostly-POSIX-compliant shell, including the command
history features.  If you are using NetBSD-current from the last 8 months
sometime, we also have a Korn shell workalike installed as /bin/ksh.  (I
personally prefer our ksh to bash, zsh, and even our version of sh because 
it is lighter and very compatible with existing sh and ksh scripts.)
