Thanks, it'd been a while since I'd given it a good blast, and it certainly helped -- I've reverted back to using the kernel on-demand governor and the temperature is more stable. I still stand by the comment that it should be possible to tell the governor to take into account the CPU temperature and trip points and throttle back if necessary.

This will make ondemand lower the maximum frequency it chooses.
