Thermald throttle unsupported CPU after certain temperature using coretemp

I have a Samsung R519 notebook running Arch Linux 4.19.2. The CPU is an Intel Pentium Dual T3400 (2.16GHz). The CPU often hits its thermal critical level and shuts down during heavy workloads. Fan is fully operational and heatsink is in its place with new paste. To combat this, I have installed thermald as well as ran the sensors-detect utility to generate the lm_sensors config. The lm_sensors service is active and, based on the config file, only loads the coretemp module.
HWMON_MODULES="coretemp"
Thermald fails to start with the following error:
$ sudo thermald --no-daemon --loglevel=debug
NO RAPL sysfs present
10 CPUID levels; family:model:stepping 0x6:f:d (6:15:13)
Need Linux PowerCap sysfs
failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel
failed to open /dev/acpi_thermal_rel
TRT/ART read failed
I/O warning : failed to load external entity "/etc/thermald/thermal-conf.xml"
error: could not parse file /etc/thermald/thermal-conf.xml
Unsupported cpu model, use thermal-conf.xml file or run with --ignore-cpuid-check
THD engine start failed
I have created the thermal-conf.xml file, but I don't seem to be able to configure it properly, and both the manpages for thermald and thermal-conf.xml as well as various examples on the web don't make it clear enough. I understand the basic XML structure of the file but I am unable to fill up all the necessary values myself as they seem badly explained or way too cryptic.
The following devices are present in /sys/class/thermal:
cooling_device0 cooling_device2 cooling_device4 thermal_zone1
cooling_device1 cooling_device3 thermal_zone0
both thermal_zone0 and 1 are of type acpitz. There are no controllable fan devices present so I rely on passive cooling methods. To my knowledge the CPU doesn't support any of the new p-step functionality present in newer ones.
The coretemp device is present at /sys/devices/platform/coretemp.0/hwmon/hwmon1/ and doesn't contain a temp1* entry with the highest core temp out of the two. temp2* and temp3* are available and list their independent temperatures.
To finally get to my intention: I'd like to create a thermal-conf.xml configuration that has a thermal zone taking its values from coretemp. Upon reaching a certain temperature, for example 90000 (90C), thermald should attempt to engage passive cooling methods supported by the CPU and throttle it down.
