The C7 works fine with acpi-cpufreq if the correct BIOS tables are present.
Support *could* be added to speedstep-centrino to use hardcoded tables
for these CPUs for systems where the BIOSes lack them, but hasn't been
done yet.
Given speedstep-centrino is due to be obsoleted by acpi-cpufreq at some stage,
the feature of using hardcoded tables probably needs to be added to
acpi-cpufreq at some point too.
