In my case, the kernel of intrepid (2.6.27) does not have thermal falts. Using some intensive app like a game or stress test, it does not goes over 90 degrees, which seems to be normal for an AMD processor, and the system keeps stable.
I made the same tests on Jaunty (2.6.28) and my cpu goes over 90 degrees, (for my cpu, 95 Celsius is a critial value) and them, when at 95, it shuts down.
I guess that 87 degrees is a normal temperature under full CPU utilisation, but we must check the critical values for our processors.
