Robin Szemeti sent the following bits through the ether:

Obviously didn't read the bit about the process method eh?
# text reference
$tt->process(\$text)
|| die $tt->error(), "\n";
...
By default, the processed template output is printed to
STDOUT. The process() method then returns 1 to indicate
success. A third parameter may be passed to the process()
method to specify a different output location. This value
may be one of: a plain string indicating a filename which
will be opened (relative to OUTPUT_PATH, if defined) and
the output written to; a file GLOB opened ready for
output; a reference to a scalar (e.g. a text string) to
which output/error is appended; a reference to a
subroutine which is called, passing the output as a
parameter; or any object reference which implements a
'print' method (e.g. IO::Handle, Apache::Request, etc.)
which will be called, passing the generated output as a
parameter.
You'd be wanting the string ref as above, matie.
