It was a few years ago that I was told that it did matter. I guess they
heard from enough customers that they changed it...

No, that's not correct.
The EMC licensing documentation clearly states that they license by the
number of physical slots occupied.
A dual-core processor which only occupies a single, physical slot only
requires a license covering 1 processor.
The same has always applied to hyperthreading too. I.e., quoting the
guidelines:
"NetWorker licensing is based on physical CPUs, therefore
hyper-threaded, as
well as Dual Core CPUs will only count as single physical CPUs when
licensing with NetWorker, regardless of the number of logical CPUs
represented."
Cheers,
Preston.
