The following is a solution, but not for IPsec policy.

You can also use GPMC to make a report (and for that matter
a backup) of the GPOs. There are scripts in the GPMC install
dir structure for these.
You can then automate a bulk reporting of GPOs, and then do
a windiff (or other compare) against the reference reports.

GPMC does not handle the IPsec policy in its reports.
For these you could look into using the ipsec context of netsh
if you are in W2k3.
