We implemented an in-house solution using Cisco Template Manager (http://www.gelogic.net/cisco-template-manager/). Its basically a bunch of bash/perl scripts doing regex matching against the saved configs from RANCID. Works fine for both Cisco and Juniper.

It requires some hand tooling, but we have it doing exactly what you want (checking against different device function templates).
