The above could be the same as:

      int foo() const;
      int bar() const;

and this apply to the return type:

      const int foo();
      const int bar();

When grouping with : or { } it applies to the actual named declarations it  
encloses; but if const is applied before the return type, precedence (the  
juxtaposition) dictates association with the return type.

This is what I would assume.
