--- Comment #1 from David Malcolm <dmalcolm at gcc dot gnu.org> ---
Thanks for filing this bug.

Confirmed with trunk, gcc-8, and gcc-7.

gcc-6 and earlier put both warnings on the close-parentheses:

/tmp/test.cc:1:13: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type
[-Wignored-qualifiers]
 int const f() { return 0; }
             ^
/tmp/test.cc:3:15: warning: type qualifiers ignored on function return type
[-Wignored-qualifiers]
 int * const g() { return 0; }
               ^
