On thread has a long list of guitars with cracks. Some them are Axis and Silhouette guitars:

One point is that if the are down in the wood and the cracks spread, then it is possible that the guitar made go out of alignmnent and the guitar is usless. The other point is that the cracks are cosmetic.
It is tough to say without examing every guitar out there that has cracks. The fact that the cracks are at a crucial place on the guitars (where the neck meets the body) is a real concern.
