Straight up head-const is utterly useless IMHO. That's what Java has. C++ has something far more complicated where any individual piece (or pieces) of a pointer type can be declared const without necessarily making the whole thing const.

That's right. 'headconst' cannot be just a storage class, it has to be a type constructor.
You're right that mangling is the big issue with C++ interoperability in regards to const.
