There's a WebObjects package on the Xcode installer disk image, which 
may work independently but I've never tried that...

Yes you can do this, having ssh'd as an admin user:

$ hdiutil attach /path/to/XcodeTools.dmg
$ sudo installer -pkg /Volumes/Xcode\ Tools/WebObjects.pkg -target /
Password:
[make some coffee]
$ hdiutil detach /Volumes/Xcode\ Tools

it may actually be "WebObjects.mpkg" instead of .pkg, I can't remember 
that bit at the moment and don't have an Xcode installer disk to verify.
