Clang also emits a warning:
$ cat test.c
int foo(const char const *data);
$ /opt/clang-3.6.2/bin/clang -S -std=c89 test.c
test.c:1:20: warning: duplicate 'const' declaration specifier
[-Wduplicate-decl-specifier]
int foo(const char const *data);
^~~~~~

$ /opt/clang-3.6.2/bin/clang -xc++ -S -std=c++11 test.c

"-pedantic-errors" turns this warning into an error in C++ and C89 (but not
C99).
Recently I came across such problem in the code base, which I work with. In
that case it was clearly a mistake, because the author meant 'const char *const
data', so it would be nice if GCC could warn about this.
