I personally would prefer to use webrick over apache2, since it's much
more lightweight. That's just my two cents.

I am apathetic about which web servers are preferred, I would just like to see git-instaweb work well on Mac OS X. Kevin Ballard's suggestion was to fall back on apache2.

We could also modify the default to use [lighttpd, webrick, apache2] in that order (whichever is available). Would the community prefer that approach?
