I got instructions on how to remove rust stains from a baby stroller liner, but it would also work on your shorts. From the website:
Small stains may be removed with a few drops of a commercial rust remover, or by repeated applications of lemon juice and salt on the stain. Do not let dry between applications.
Rinse thoroughly and launder with a liquid laundry detergent and oxygen bleach, following directions.
If safe for fabric, boil in solution of 4 teaspoons of cream of tartar per pint of water. Rinse thoroughly.
Severe rust staining may be removed with a commercial rust remover, such as RoVer or Whink. Follow package instructions. But rust removers that contain hydrofluoric acid are extremely toxic, can burn the skin, and will damage the porcelain finish on appliances and sinks.

There is a product called Whink rust stain remover that will remove most rust stains on contact.

The only hting i can think of that might do it is Oxiclean. Soak the garment in it as per the directions for overnight(I'd say).
Good luck!
