Actually, it's preferable (from a philisophical point-of-view) to not 
use in-line styles. That way you avoid this problem altogether. Use 
mutiple classes in the markup. Then you can either define the class in 
the css, or dynamically assign the class in the pmwiki header.

   (:div2 class="header-content garden-bg" :)

and then the css:
   .header-content
     {some css};
   .header-content .garden-bg
     {height:84px;background-image:url(hard-coded-path/garden_bg.jpg);}

Or if the path is not constant, or you don't want to hard-code it use:
   $HTMLStylesFmt['myskin'] =
     ".header-content .garden-bg 
{height:84px;background-image:url({$SkinUrl}/garden_bg.jpg);}";
