Neither. It simply means that the two music expressions ("c1" and the "<< ... 
>>") are to be interpreted in parallel in the current context.

The cause here is once again our beloved implicit context creation... In the 
above case, no voice or staff has yet been created, the << does also not 
create one, so when lilypond sees the c1, it creates a voice+staff. When it 
then processes the s4\<, it does the same, because it is apparently not in the 
same voice (which was only created for the c1.

Wrap \new Voice aroud the <<....>> to explicitly create the voice or staff and 
it will work:

\new Voice { << c1 { s4\< s2\! s4 } >> }

Cheers,
Reinhold
