% sysctl dev.amdtemp
&
% sysctl hw.acpi.thermal
& the other stuff is probably best extracted via:
% sysctl dev.cpu | grep temperature
(as you can't use wildcards in sysctl oids, bleh)

For my dual core machine, I use:
% sysctl hw.acpi.thermal.tz0.temperature dev.amdtemp.0.sensor0 \
dev.amdtemp.0.sensor1 dev.cpu.0.temperature dev.cpu.1.temperature

in a script to quickly see all of my temperature sensors.  You likely have
many more.
