I think I now got the root cause: libsensors in Hardy only calculates with integer values as input. There seems to be no rounding, instead decimal digits are just cut off. So it makes absolutely no difference whether I put 6.8 or 6.0 or 6.9 into the formula in sensors3.conf. But it results in a big jump of output-value if I change from 6.9 to 7.0. This was different previously and is not documented anywhere. I guess it is not intentionally, because in Debian-Lenny all is ok and it was ok in Feisty.
Hope we get that fixed soon, so I can base my formula on reality and not on dirty hacks to overcome the precision deficiency.
