I'm not sure how big Savant is, but it's one that's often favorably
reviewed. I believe the website is http://www.phpsavant.org/

PEAR has a couple of template solutions, but I'm not hear too much about
them, good or bad.

Another one I've seen favorable review on is patTemplate, from the PHP
Tools site: http://www.php-tools.net/
