If you are using the "coretemp" sensor module, the logic by which it reports "temperature" changed somewhere in the last few kernels. Also, in many (most?) cases it doesn't report an actual temperature at all but a relative one on a scale from 0-100 based on some operating range defined by Intel? or somebody...
