Prince XML has a free non-commercial license:

I recently read an article on alistapart.com that mentioned it. I'm not sure exactly what system libraries might be needed - it installed with little effort on my mac.
I compared it side by side with wkhtmltopdf. wkhtmltopdf produced a better version of the site I pointed it at. Looks like Prince has some more options though - like passing in your own stylesheets and working with xml in addition to html.
