1. how much information is lost from the Gimple IR in the dumping process?

A good chunk.  Enough that you would have to spend significant effort
reconstructing it.  You might be interested in the link time
optimization project (LTO).  One of the goals of the project is to
stream the IL on disk.  See http://gcc.gnu.org/wiki/LinkTimeOptimization

2. Is there any current implementation that takes the dumped form of
 gimple, and can recreate the IR.

No, but I believe that the LTO branch is now at the point where the IR is stream to disk and read back.
