Georg Brandl added the comment:

While I can feel your pain regarding the use case you describe, I don't think 
this has enough general value to add to CPython.  It is not really related to 
PYTHONHASHSEED, since we never made guarantees about hash values being stable 
across platforms and Python versions.  PYTHONHASHSEED was introduced to address 
backwards compatibility for the rare cases where stable hash values are 
required within a platform/version combination.

Without knowing anything about your libraries, would it not be possible to 
create a stable representation within the test case for comparison purposes, 
without having to write the unstable result to a file and then parsing it?  
That should be acceptable, given that creating and manipulating those graphs 
will probably also take significant time in the first place.
