I have a theory about the cooling part of the heat problem: the SMC seems to have changed at least twice since 2005 with regard to how fan control works. The attached script will reveal which version applies to a certain machine. If there still is a bug, it should be related at least to machines MB51, MBA21, MBP51, MBP54. If you do file a new bug _please_ insert a link to that page from here.
