acpid probably isn't related to that anyway. Or did you configure some
thermal triggers there? Does your new kernel have proper support for
ACPI (and its thermal module) and (although not important during
compile run) CPUfreq? MCE support? All relevant modules loaded?

I guess it's not the (speed of the) fans, but rather speed throttling
what's not working as desired here.
