--- Comment #1 from Conrad Meyer <c...@freebsd.org> ---
It doesn't do nothing -- it changes the printed time field and sorted-by time
field to be the "changed" date.  Even with plain 'ls -l' vs 'ls -cl' I can
observe this on my directories.  E.g.,


$ ls -l nacl-20110221.tar.bz2
-rw-r--r--  1 conrad  conrad  163415 Feb 20  2011 nacl-20110221.tar.bz2
$ ls -lc nacl-20110221.tar.bz2       ^^^^^^^^^^^^
-rw-r--r--  1 conrad  conrad  163415 Mar 10 11:02 nacl-20110221.tar.bz2
                                     ^^^^^^^^^^^^
$ stat -x nacl-20110221.tar.bz2

For sorting, it's a modifier flag for 't', which actually induces time-based
sorting.  Try 'ls -lt' vs 'ls -clt'.

The documentation could be more clear.
