Thank you for the answer, now I see how it works.

I think that it means that the documentation is rather misleading about
this flag:

 '-fprofile-reproducible=[multithreaded|parallel-runs|serial]'
      Control level of reproducibility of profile gathered by
      '-fprofile-generate'. [...]

It convinced me that this flag changes the way the code is instrumented
for profile generation.  The rest of it convinced me even more, actually.
