Could you apply the attached patch?  And if same error
occurs again, please increase the sleep time. (Windows
doesn't allow deleting opened files. This patch makes it
delay to wait for exiting of child process.)

and try it.

    require 'webrick'
    include WEBrick
    s = HTTPServer.new(
      :Port => 2000,
      :DocumentRoot => Dir::pwd + "/htdocs",
      :CGIInterpreter => "C:/Apps/Ruby18/bin/ruby.exe"
    )
    s.mount("/rwiki", HTTPServlet::FileHandler, "/path/of/script-dir")
    s.start

When CGIHandler is mounted on server directly, third
argument of mount() is expexted to be a pathname of script.

    s.mount("/rwiki", HTTPServlet::CGIHandler, "/path/of/script.cgi")
