The locale stuff is most likely in the C library, so you wouldn't see the environment variables themselves referenced in the ls binary; the ls source is going to call macros that yield values the locale library has figured out elsewhere. The relevant variable for date formats is LC_TIME. LC_ALL overrides LC_TIME overrides LANG. Not sure if there are any OS-X specific quirks.
