Hi,
I see exactly the same on my x60s, but during upgrade to 2.6.26.2.

I found that (at least in my case) the problem is, that in
2.6.25 the core frequency drop to 1GHz (instead of 1.67GHz) when
the temperature is above some limit.

Now, the CPU cores remains on 1.67GHz and fan is unable to cool them properly
under heavy load (even if I set "level disengaged" through thinkpad fan control,
temperature sensor shows after a while 128 C (probably not real temp,
I expect some critical flag => and it properly switch off the system...)

(I had bad reproducer script in bisect and bisect failed, so I'll try it again,
but anyway, for me the bug is even in 2.6.26 tree. It never happened in 2.6.25.)
