Cold resistance does NOT negate the encumbrance penalty of coldblooded creatures in cold climate, only the extreme cold penalty (+2 enc).

Apparently, there is something similar for non-cold-blooded creature : I made a SP game with Caelum and a Virtue recently and she was still suffering from higher encumbrance after I put a ring of CR on her (although it was not listed in the encumbrance field anymore). I can't remember if base encumbrance was still one, but melee and spellcasting encumbrance were 3 without any other gear or any affliction.
