Re: [PATCH] instaweb: support for Ruby's WEBrick server

I could generate a second /bin/sh script to run
  "ruby .../webrick.rb"
This would assume that 'ruby' was in the user's $PATH, but that seems
like a reasonable expectation.

The drawback is that we'd be generating TWO scripts, one ruby script
to invoke the server, and one shell script to run the ruby
script. This seems a little ... circuitous.

Another idea is to hack the $httpd variable to contain a command
string like "ruby .../webrick.rb", with the drawback then being a lack
of obviousness, since the convention is that the variable contains the
same command as the --httpd argument, and is named the same as
the <webserver>_conf() functions.

This is what /usr/bin/env is useful for, but it's not that portable.

Yeah, it's /bin/env exclusively on some systems. 8-(
