I created a psutil branch using GetLogicalProcessorInformation() to determine both logical and physical CPUs:
https://github.com/giampaolo/psutil/pull/1257
According to https://stackoverflow.com/questions/31209256 basically all Windows APIs are unreliable and GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx() is what should really be used. 
That is available only starting from Windows 7 though so apparently what we want is GetLogicalProcessorInformationEx() and if not available fallback on GetActiveProcessorCount(ALL_PROCESSOR_GROUPS) which may still report the wrong number of CPUs on 32 bit processes.
