Can you confirm that the header is being sent? I just mocked up an Ajax request with an 'X-Twilio-Signature' header, and found it in web2py as request.env.http_x_twilio_signature. Try including response.toolbar() in your view (which is included by default in generic.html for local requests) and look at the contents of the request object to see what headers were received (all the HTTP headers start with request.env.http_, and are repeated as request.wsgi.environ.HTTP_).
