Is it required to download and install Macaulay 2 for sage to use it?

Yes, it is optional. I created a ticket the other day

http://trac.sagemath.org/sage_trac/ticket/10117

to say this should be documented, as its not clear from reading the documentation that this is so.

I've built sage already, would I have to rebuild sage if I installed
Macaulay 2 after the build?

It should not be necessary to do so. I think typing

$ sage -i /path/to/Macaulay/package
$ sage -b

should be enough to install the package, and rebuild any parts of the library that the package has changed. But I've never used this myself.

TIA,
