The above "trick" is to handle the case that we inserted a probe with the:
if (pos < 0 && old[nr_probes].prio < prio)
pos = probes++;
Which in the below code, you missed.

The problem is above, because we just skipped adding old[iter_probes].

I'm not sure this is any less confusing than my code. Because, I now have
to try and wrap my head around how to increment three different variables
instead of just two.
I agree that we can just make it one code, but I think I'll keep the
original logic, with slight modifications influenced by your code.
Instead of doing that "trick" that decrements nr_probes, I should increment
it if we are adding to the end (pos < 0):
if (pos < 0)
pos = nr_probes++;
/* nr_probes points to the end of the array */
} else { /* !old */
pos = 0;
nr_probes = 1; /* points to end of array */
}
new[pos] = *tp_func;
new[nr_probes].func = NULL;

I'll add this change too.
