Maybe you could fill a bug report in order to ask if it is possible
change the history behaviour about -c and -w switches, actually it
doesn't accept this combination, you cannot use

	$history -c -w  
or
	$history -cw

You have to run separately

    $history -c
AND
    $history -w

Though I don't think this is a bug.
