Regardless of what you are trying to call this situation, it is good practice to fill the craters. I didn't notice what code you are working to but according to...
AWS D1.1:2004 Table 6.1 Visual Inspection Acceptance Criteria
(1) Crack Prohibition
says..." Any crack shall be unacceptable, regardless of size or location."
(3) Crater Cross Section
says..." All craters shall be filled to provide the specified weld size, except for the ends of intermittant fillet welds outside of their effective length."
