Ok. I found a workaround.

1. you can monitor your fan speed from the thinkpad-acpi module: cat 
/proc/acpi/ibm/fan
2. you can adjust the fan speed to stay on at full speed by executing the 
following command as root: echo level disengaged /proc/acpi/ibm/fan

One I did that, the fan kicked up to 4000+ rpm and stayed there. The CPU
temp stays at 94C under full load and goes no higher.

For more info, see the following:

Good luck!
