What have you done since you last saw the probes? Reboot? Restart postgres?

If you rebooted, you'll need to change the mode on /dev/dtrace/helper again,
and the mode needs to be correct before postgres starts. You can set the
mode in /etc/devfs.conf I guess, but ensure that the DTrace modules are already
loaded when rc runs (i.e. by adding dtraceall_load="YES" to your loader.conf).
