To clarify: in Summer '13 you are now able to include Approval Processes in Change Sets but you cannot add them to Managed or Unmanaged Packages. Here's a snippet from the release notes:
Approval processes are now available in change sets and are exposed in the Metadata API. Approval processes are not supported
in managed or unmanaged packages.
No, you have to create the approval process on client org manually.
