I think Andreas hit the nail here... this "bug" thread isn't so much a single bug it is a single -symptom- of multiple bugs which may or may not be related.

Without some more detailed data on all the different machine configurations I don't see this bug moving forward. Fan control hack scripts on your own machine aren't going to help fix it.

Folks should report:
  Machine, chipset, graphics chip, graphics driver being used
  Temperature data under both jaunty and another OS (windows or previous ubuntu if the issue is changed). Idle temps, idle fan speeds, cpu loaded temps, cpu loaded fan speeds, heavy graphics temperature data and fan speeds.

With more data we might start to see some trends and be able to boil this down to where the bugs really are.
