From www.template-toolkit.org:

     The Template Toolkit is a fast, powerful and easily extensible
     template processing system written in Perl with certain key
     elements coded in C for maximum speed.  [...]  The Toolkit is
     highly portable, with minimal dependencies or restrictions on how
     and where it can be used. It is robust, reliable, well documented
     and freely available as Open Source.

I guess this should answer your questions, that is:

1: No
2: Yes
3: Yes

As for bundling TT along with your Perl build, I think you just need to
build and install it normally.  For example, when you build/install Perl
in /some/path, it creates these dirs:

   /some/path/bin/
   /some/path/lib/perl5/
   /some/path/lib/perl5/5.8.x/
   /some/path/lib/perl5/site_perl/
...

After this, you can either:

   (1) download the TT source, unpack and run

       /some/path/bin/perl Makefile.PL
       make && make install

       or,

   (2) /some/path/bin/cpan install Template

It should go in the right directory (.../site_perl/).  Next, you bundle
the whole /some/path directory tree.

This should work on at least Linux and Solaris; in Windows it might be a
good idea to install Cygwin first.
