_No_, as I already said.

We invalidate xhist[_0_], as I already said.

We should get

         xhist[ 0] = NULL
         xhist[ 1] = D   <-- idx
         xhist[ 2] = B2
         ...
         xhist[63] = B63

Perhaps You have not received or read my replies.

It will stop at xhist[0] because it has been invalidated.

Could you read the following reply? Not enough?

I am sorry if my english makes you hard to understand. But I already
answered all you asked.
