Sorry for taking time - i meant to look into what is happening here.
hmmer works faster with your patch w/o PGO however we now have 20%
improvement on PGO runs this week (as seen in LNT)
https://lnt.opensuse.org/db_default/v4/SPEC/graph?plot.0=7.180.0
So the long standing issue of hmmer with PGO seems to be related to this
update.

Perhaps using te->probability/fe->probability would make it more obvious
what is going on (and save one inversion).

Patch is OK.
Since the PGO runs only once a week, it would be great if you could
check whether hmmer works well with PGO now.
