>From tne cmn_err(9f) man page for solaris:

     The first character in format affects where the message will
     be written:

     !    the message goes only to the system buffer.

     ^    the message goes only to the console.

     ?    If level is also CE_CONT, the message is always sent to
          the  system  buffer, but is only written to the console
          when the system has been booted in verbose  mode.   See
          kernel(1M).   If  neither  condition  is  met,  the '?'
          character has no effect and is simply ignored.
