Volatile binding for const?

I'm confused about the proper binding for the `const' and `volatile'
keywords. Both of my `pANS conformant' (:-) compilers tell me
something about storage qualifiers that I find counter-intuitive.
char const *s, *t; =is=> {char const *} s, t
char *const s, *t; =is=> char {const *s}, *t
The second one makes sense to me. The first one doesn't. Is this
behavior correct? Is there a rationalle that would help my
intuition get a little closer to reality?
