It
is optional and not illegal, hence my comment on how it's a hack. I can't help but feel that one is more consistent than the other, sort of like this situation:
Code:
const int foo;
int const bar;
Both lines of code do
exactly the same thing but
bar is more consistent than
foo, so I use it despite the popularity of
foo's style...
