I'll contain my wonder and summarize by saying let's move on.
Andreas can you try a different distro with a similar vintage kernel? If you try your burn in with knoppix 6.0.1 it also uses 2.6.28 kernel. I'm assuming it is a kernel issue, but this will also see if it is an ubuntu kernel specific issue. If it does still overheat we can move back in kernel version until the problem disappears.
BTW... I took my laptop apart and reapplied thermal grease to the CPU and GPU. My temps are now way down from where they were before. Evidently when lenovo replaced my motherboard they failed to reapply the grease well. Just a reminder that hardware issues are not out of the question for everyone chasing thermal issues...
