I looked but could not find such a post from benh. 

But the sarge kernel seems to have CONFIG_THERM_PM72 set, while the
pseries one does not. Perhaps that is all.....?

shyamal@turtle:~$ grep THERM /boot/config-2.6.*
/boot/config-2.6.11-pseries:# CONFIG_THERM_PM72 is not set
/boot/config-2.6.11-pseries:CONFIG_W1_THERM=m
/boot/config-2.6.11-pseries:CONFIG_USB_CYTHERM=m
/boot/config-2.6.8-power4-smp:CONFIG_THERM_PM72=y
/boot/config-2.6.8-power4-smp:CONFIG_W1_THERM=m
/boot/config-2.6.8-power4-smp:CONFIG_USB_CYTHERM=m

Cheers!
