while overheating can cause some strange behaviour, that seems a bit
selective. nothing else on the file system disappearing?

if you wanted to monitor the temperature, you could do a small script:

#!/bin/ksh
_sensor=$(sysctl hw.sensors | grep temp0 | sed 's/=.*//')
while true;do
  echo "$(date +%Y%m%d.%H%M) $(sysctl $_sensor)"
  sleep 60
done | tee ~/watch-temp

that would at least keep a log of the processor temp for you. i don't know
what the other temperatures it tracks are, but if you needed them too:

#!/bin/ksh
_sensor=$(sysctl hw.sensors | grep temp[0-2] | sed 's/=.*//')
while true;do
  echo -n "$(date +%Y%m%d.%H%M) "
  echo $(sysctl $_sensor | sed -e 's/.*temp/temp/' -e 's/ degC/degC/g')
  sleep 60
done | tee ~/watch-temp

gives an output that looks like this:

20150403.2348 temp0=45.00degC temp1=34.00degC temp2=9.00degC
