Maybe, but I'm not sure how useful it will actually be in practice to compare dump output that way.  I feel like if we successfully parse the DWARF using LLVM's parser, and no tests on either side regress in the process, then it is probably sufficient to say that things worked.

Can you imagine a scenario where the two outputs meaningfully differ but the test suites passed anyway?
