Nice. I'm in favor of adding WEBrick since it's fairly commonly
installed on developer boxes and is more consistently available
if available at all. Apache and lighttpd may not be compiled
with some modules we need.
I'm having trouble applying this patch, however. It's
whitespace-mangled and using long lines doesn't help mailers much.

Could we make the shebang dynamic? (capturing the output of `which ruby`
maybe, or just breaking down and using /usr/bin/env ruby). The ruby
binary seems to appear all over the place on the filesystem from my
experience, especially with its popularity amongst OSX users.
