In general, in a config.php file I think it's better to use '=' instead
of SDV() to set variables.  (There are exceptions.)  I would've written
the above as:

    $Skin = 'light';
    $pagename = ResolvePageName($pagename);
    if ($pagename == 'Main.WikiSandbox') $Skin = 'pmwiki';

The difference is simply one of surprise -- an administrator who
already has a $Skin = '...'  line in the config.php might be
surprised when the SDV() code (added to the end of config.php)
seems to have no effect.

Similarly, a farmconfig.php might set a $Skin='...' value, in which
case the SDV() version above would seem to not do anything.
