Apparently, the OS detects only one logical CPU (no hyperthreading) on your system, but it looks like HTT is enabled, so this might be the cause of your message. In any case, you will probably not have any problems with this configuration. HTT in those days sucked anyway. On the other hand, you are running a CURRENT kernel with WITNESS and other debugging enabled, so as the boot message says, expect your system to run very slow.
