Matchit seems to come standard with all versions of Vim I have had the pleasure to use these days. On the standard Vim 7.0 you get for Windows, as well as for Gentoo, I have had matchit included, with specific instructions in the help using matchit as the typical example for plugins.

From usr_05.txt:

*05.5*    Adding a help file        *add-local-help* *matchit-install*

If you are lucky, the plugin you installed also comes with a help file.  We
will explain how to install the help file, so that you can easily find help
for your new plugin.
  Let us use the "matchit.vim" plugin as an example (it is included with
Vim).  This plugin makes the "%" command jump to matching HTML tags,
if/else/endif in Vim scripts, etc.  Very useful, although it's not backwards
compatible (that's why it is not enabled by default).
This plugin comes with documentation: "matchit.txt". Let's first copy the
plugin to the right directory.  This time we will do it from inside Vim, so
that we can use $VIMRUNTIME.  (You may skip some of the "mkdir" commands if
you already have the directory.) >

You are looking for %.  In order to enable the
use of it, you need to enable the matchit
plugin.  See :help matchit

matchit is an external plugin.
