Basic: Yes.
Asked: Yes.
Answered: The jury is out on that one, and probably will
remain so, 
until "Non Commercial" is clearly defined within
the licence.

restriction?

Yes it does.
No it does not.
Maybe it does, maybe it does not.

4 (c) tends to indicate that AdSense violates the NC part.
The CC Guidelines imply that AdSense might not violate the
NC part.

Current thinking is very mixed.  It literally depends upon
what the 
content creator understands "Non Commercial" to
mean.  I'll also point 
out that the content user can have a contrary position to
that of the 
content creator, and still claim to be within the bounds of
the contract.
