The problem lies in the fact that both hands proc the same event. The statement that implies that when dual wielding your proc rate is 36% is saying that there is a 36% chance one of your weapons will proc a windfury.
Just to simplify things;
WF1 = windfury (rank 5) proc from your mainhand
WF2 = windfury (rank 4) proc from your offhand
WF3 = windfury proc from either (doesn't differentiate between MH and OH procs)
various scenarios
-Only equipping a MH you would have a 20% chance to proc WF1
-Only equipping an OH you would have 20% chance to proc WF2
-Dualwielding, pre-WF rank change, your MH has a 20% chance to proc WF1 and your OH has a 20% to proc WF2
-Dualwielding, post-WF rank change, you have a 36% (0.8*0.8) chance to proc WF3
EDIT: Blizzard hasn't changed the proc rate for single vs dualwielding. The confusion just happens when people use the same word to mean different things. Sometimes "WF proc" is used for a specific hand which procs and sometimes "WF proc" refers to any proc that happens.
