You would think so, but int* a, b is actually eqivalent to int* a; int b, so the asterisk actually does go with the name. Writing int* a, *b is inconsistent, so int *a, *b is the way to go.
While technically true, that’s also one of the worst ‘features’ of the language and I personally consider it a bug in the language. Use two lines and make it clear and correct.

Don’t declare more than 1 pointer per line. This resolves that, badly.
Alright, I’ll never, ever write something this way now. Good to know.
This is true in C, but not in D.
