Proposed resolution (February, 2010):

Change 9.2.6 [dcl.constexpr] paragraph 6 as follows:

A constexpr specifier for a non-static member function that is not a constructor declares that member function to be const (11.4.3 [class.mfct.non.static]). [Note: the constexpr specifier has no other effect on the function type. —end note] The keyword const is ignored if it appears in the cv-qualifier-seq of the function declarator of the declaration of such a member function. The class of which that function is a member shall be a literal type (6.9 [basic.types]). [Example:...

Notes from the July, 2009 meeting:

The CWG agreed that a const qualifier on a constexpr member function is simply redundant and not an error.
