savehist-save does not create output directory for savehist-file, e.g.:
savehist-save: Opening output file: no such file or directory,
/home/bob/some/new/cache/dir/history
This is in contrast with other examples, such as
filesets-menu-cache-file, which offers to create the directory if it
does not exist.
This is annoying because the error stops C-x C-c from being able to
exit Emacs.

I've now changed this on the Emacs trunk so that it just creates the
directory (without prompting) before saving.
