It used to be that way some time back, but nowadays Apache just passes 
everything to a different port.

config/routes.rb of Instiki (at least, the trunk version) contains the 
following code snippet:

  if defined? DEFAULT_WEB
    explicit_path = generic_path.gsub(/:web\/?/, '')
    explicit_routing_options = generic_routing_options.merge(:web => 
DEFAULT_WEB)
    map.connect(explicit_path, explicit_routing_options)
  end

and then all routes to web-specific pages are defined as:
  connect_to_web map, ':web/edit_web', :controller => 'admin', :action 
=> 'edit_web'

Which means that if you add
  DEFAULT_WEB = 'instiki'
to your config/environment.rb, it will route /show/HomePage same to the 
same action and web as /instiki/show/HomePage.

Caveat: unfortunately, this also breaks some functionality in other 
(non-default) webs (try to click on Recently Revised at 
http://instiki.org/textilesandbox/show/HomePage). So, you cannot have a 
default web on a multi-web Instiki installation. If someone could patch 
routes.rb to make this scenario possible, I'll accept it without much ado.
