The thing is, you've probably got some kind of cooling system for the 
suit already right? If you do, why not add to that system and include 
the weapon's cooling system in it as well, or piggy back off the same 
function.

Cooling circuit for the Guy inside
Cooling circuit for the gun
Cooling circuit for the power pack
common fan with a backup for all three with 3 separate heat-sincs for 
dumping heat into the surrounding environment at predicted times.
