Yes, it only depends on its own runtime (libxsde). There are no external 
dependencies.

Actually, the XSD/e package for Mac OS X comes with pre-built XSD/e
compiler as well as source code for the runtime. So you will need to
build the runtime for both the hardware and the simulator. Look into
the etc/ directory in the package, it contains sample config files
and build instructions for various platforms, include iOS.

Yes, the C++/Parser mapping in XSD/e is very similar to C++/Parser in XSD,
especially if you configure XSD/e with STL and C++ exceptions enabled.
