Quoting "Eric S. Raymond" <e...@thyrsus.com>:
Is the CPU temp going to be a good approximation of what the clock sees,
though?  I can think of several reasons to doubt it.

It's better than nothing, but it does have two limitations:

1. the CPU heats itself at a different rate than the surrounding board, so it can be much hotter than the oscillator
2. the in-CPU temperature sensors tend to be low-ish resolution

For example, see the first two graphs:
