It appears to be a completely self-contained executable that sits in a 
general "bin" directory since it does not have its own subdirectories in 
the texmf tree.

It is 260Kb, I've put a copy at
   http://cgcom.capgeminigroup.com/ftp/63598/yap.exe
where it can be downloaded anytime over the next 7 days.

>what is the exact spec of the special?

The only documentation that I can find regarding the specials that it 
supports and their syntax is at:
http://tom.imm.uran.ru/~u1904/tex/yap.html#SEC37

Further up at the same URL there is some information about how it uses 
fonts. I'm not sure what you mean by "does yap use outline fonts": yap 
only supports metafont fonts as far as I know (as opposed to Type 1 or 
TTF).
