FWIW, we've been using talloc in our SSSD (System Security Services Daemon [1]) implementation. talloc is packaged independently in Fedora. I know SSSD is being picked by Ubuntu so I expect you'll see talloc packages showing up in other distros too independent of Samba.
Yes, it's now available in a lot of places.
I've worked with a number of packages which use "arenas" or "pools" for allocation like talloc, they have some very attractive aspects.
