dunno if it could possibly get confused, this it's working fine for
me:

require 'webrick'
include WEBrick

s = HTTPServer.new(
  :Port            => 2000,
  :DocumentRoot    => "/"
)

s.mount("/my", HTTPServlet::FileHandler, 'C:\pubs',true)

s.start


it seems that you could try passing  
:BindAddress =>your_chosen_addr

possibly you have multiple net interface and this confuses the script?

or maybe you could contact the author to check if you discovered a bug
:)
