Hi,

definitely interesting might be, that the autographs from Schönberg 
himself doen't contain this special symbols, but he set a cross instead 
of a notehead. Confer to 
http://www.schoenberg.at/6_archiv/music/works/op/compositions_op21_sources_e.htm# 
for instance page 12 of the cathegory B. I remember some explanations 
though that his intention was to keep the specified singing voice level, 
so the printed version might match his intention more.

Greetings
Till
