in reply to mod_perl and TT2...WITHOUT a calling script?

Apache::Template sounds like what you're asking for. However, it's not very equivalent to the other things you mentioned. Rails is an MVC system which would be like using a mod_perl handler (maybe with the help of CGI::Application or Catalyst) and using TT2 for your view.
