Sure, and I agree that you should have the choice to see these messages at the verbosity you desire, and ia64 has the capability to control things in this way.
What I disagree with is spitting out log messages about such things happening in the kernel. Because that is remotely triggerable. As Alan mentioned, if I can send packets to your ia64 box I can make it spew system log messages.
