To finally get the output from dump(), I specified dump file location by creating a preference browser.dom.window.dump.file and setting it in about:config.

I believe I had the same issue. I couldn't get dump() to print to stderr nor the console even though I had set browser.dom.window.dump.enabled to true. I'm on Ubuntu 14.04.
