true - fortunately, but libedit/readline.c contains a whole raft
of code to to support it.

/* 
 * csh-style history expansion
 */
int
history_expand(char *str, char **output)

It is possible that gdb uses it - but it might be using its
own copy of the routines.
Nothing else in the main source tree seems to.
Clearly bits of pkgsrc might...
