Ok, here is a diagnostic twist: I can only get skins to display if I 
have *two* pub (and skin) directories that each contain the skin in 
question.  Huh?

Here is my setup:

root/
  domain1.com/
    field1
  domain2.com
  domain3.com/
    pub/
       skins/
  farm/
    pub/
       skins/

The first three directories correspond to separate web accessible 
domains and the farm directory is not web accessible.  The 
farmconfig.php file in my local directory in the farm defines the 
FarmPubDirUrl:

   $FarmPubDirUrl = 'http://www.domain3.com/pmwiki/pub';

I am testing the wiki from a field in domain1.com.
The skins only work if both pub directories remain available (web 
accessible domain3/pub and non-web accessible farm/pub) and each must 
have a skins directory with the relevant skin.
