I tried your test script on Mac OS X 10.5 It didn't fail.
~/work $ rubinius/shotgun/rubinius webrick_test.rb

I am assuming that you tried to run the test with MRI. Did you get same error?

Yes I did and it ran perfectly. I really have no idea of what might cause that bug :/

There's something wrong with the BindAddress on Linux right now, I'll try to look what's wrong.
In the meantime, you can fix the issue by setting the server up with a BindAddress like this:
server = WEBrick::HTTPServer.new({:Port => 10080, :BindAddress => "127.0.0.1"})

This has been fixed in commit 96e9727, please try it out and let us know. Reopen if needed.
