Normally the fan control for machines is handled by the firmware or an EC. The kernel you're running has all of the debug options turned on and might be adding load to the system, but there isn't much the kernel can do if the system cooling isn't sufficient. You might try recreating with a non-debug kernel. It might also be worthwhile to see if there is a large build-up of dust around the cooling vents or in the fans.

I try to run the non-debug kernel 3.3.4-5.fc17.x86_64, and it's (my laptop) is still up for around 3 hours...

This bug appears to have been reported against 'rawhide' during the Fedora 19 development cycle. Changing version to '19'. (As we did not run this process for some time, it could affect also pre-Fedora 19 development cycle bugs. We are very sorry. It will help us with cleanup during Fedora 19 End Of Life. Thank you.)
