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?
