Any suggestions how to bring those tests back?

I'd suggest: convert them to PIR, and replace dumping with equality tests.

#'"ast" => PMC 'PAST;Op'  {
#     <pasttype> => "pirop"
#     <pirop> => "add"
#     <lvalue> => "foo"
#     <inline> => "%r = add %0, %1"
#}

becomes:

is(ast["pasttype"], "pirop", "PAST;Op - pasttype")
is(ast["pirop"], "add", "PAST;Op - pirop")

Main purpose of those tests is testing serialised output of PAST/POST nodes. So checking internal structure is not what we want.

Currently I'm thinking about two options:
1. Adding "stream" parameter to "_dumper()" and check output in PIR.
2. As moritz++ suggested, sort keys in _dumper before output.
