In the first instance, "with no native speakers" directly modifies "constructed languages". It is meant to create a subset of constructed languages, ie those that don't have native speakers (as opposed to those constructed languages which *do* have native speakers), whereas the latter one implicitly makes it clear that there is no other possible interpretation than that no constructed languages have native speakers (which is not true). ;)
