As a follow up, Konrad sent me in private his vbios and the issue turned out to be trivial. The reason why it behaved this way was that his vbios didn't have sensor calibration values. The fix is available here: http://gitorious.org/linux-nouveau-pm/linux-nouveau-pm/commit/59b4006b5b3082...
This fix is part of a pull request I sent to Ben.
Thanks again Konrad for reporting and testing the patches, I'll add you as a tester to this patch :)
Thanks guys for debugging analyzing and fixing this. I got the same problem on 00:05.0 VGA compatible controller [0300]: NVIDIA Corporation C51G [GeForce 6100] [10de:0242] (rev a2) and now it's fixed.
It seems it wasn't just a one single BIOS like that in the world ;)
