Django comes with a script called "runserver" that does almost
exactly what WEBrick does in development mode. Just thought I'd chime
in.
Another option for Rails deployment that *was* inspired partially by
Java and was even used to *integrate* Rails and Java is a pure-Ruby
SCGI server written by Zed Shaw.

You can, it's called webrick. No other framework or language I've
worked with has a built-in application server. Maybe java does,
but PHP
and perl certainly don't.
Two web servers is really not a big deal. Honestly, it seems like
you're simply opposed to doing what it takes to get rails running.
Either recompile php with fastcgi (not hard), get apache working with
fastcgi (hard), or proxy lighttpd through apache (not hard).
You're not going to deploy on your home machine, so I'm curious why
the
resistance to using webrick. Personally, I don't use it because it's
too slow, and that's a totally reasonable thing. But at the point of
this much frustration I'd deal with it being slow to get it working.
