I did some source comparison between suse and vanilla 2.6.25.5 kernels.
The ./drivers/acpi/processor_thermal.c and processor_throttling.c were
identical. Thermal.c were different (vanilla on the left):
[EMAIL PROTECTED]:~/Desktop/linux-2.6.25.5/drivers/acpi> diff thermal.c
thermal.cs

I can't read this but hopefully this would suggest something. Especially
since thermal.c contains these lines further down:
/* take no action if nocrt is set */
if(!nocrt) {
printk(KERN_EMERG
"Critical temperature reached (%ld C), shutting
down.\n",
KELVIN_TO_CELSIUS(tz->temperature));
orderly_poweroff(true);
}
Another point: THRC critical point on my system is 97C. 90C is PASSIVE, but I
get shutdowns at 90C. That may also mean kernel confuses CRITICAL with PASSIVE!
