ACL - Search directories where inheritance has been broken?

Is there a way to seach a directory tree and list out directories where
inherited permissions from the parent directories have been broken?

Pseudo-code:
1. get-acl on the directory you want to compare against.
2. loop through all the directories recursively and get their ACL.
3. compare the original ACL with the current one.
4. print something out if they are different.

I'll play with it some more...

$($acl.access)) -ne $null){$_.fullname}
}

Start this last command from the directory you want to look through and
compare against $acl.

(Sorry for the formatting!)
