I have been running Karmic (alpha 4, but updated to latest) on my MBP 5,1 without any heat issues, so I can at least un-confirm this problem for Karmic - I really think it is a knee-jerk reaction to put it in the release notes - there are many happy users of Karmic on MBP (see the Apple section of ubuntuforums.org).
