They are documented for state variables, not functions

There doesn't look to be any easily accessible and thorough documentation on them at the moment. http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/frequently-asked-questions.html#what-is-the-difference-between-a-function-marked-constant-and-one-that-is-not is the most I could find with some quick searching around.

[chriseth]

It's both there: http://solidity.readthedocs.io/en/latest/miscellaneous.html#modifiers

And it more or less says that it is currently ignored for functions.

Ah, thank you. This issue thread came up while searching so that makes the details a lot easier to find now.
