The cifs.ko kernel client utilities package ships a getcifsacl binary
which may be worth a try.

Noel (cc'ed) just finished a bunch of changes adding inheritance
propagation to smbcacls:
http://cgit.freedesktop.org/~noelp/noelp-samba/log/?h=smbcalcs-inherit-v2
It doesn't do recursion on --get, but the new code could certainly be
leveraged to add this feature.
Cheers, David
