We use skins here... didn't break anything.  Can you provide more detail
as to what would break? See my other note below...

Ok... here we go...
$EndScriptUrl = '://labs.mycompany.com';
$EndPubDirUrl= '://labs.mycompany.com/pmwiki/pub';

$ScriptUrl = $UrlScheme.$EndScriptUrl;
$PubDirUrl = $UrlScheme.$EndPubDirUrl;

There's some more complicated code that takes care of doing the right
sorts of things to do https when needed and back, etc.  It gets REALLY
complicated... so ... not shown here.

(maybe PubDirUrl is what was missing with regards to
your skins?)

UrlScheme has to do with http vs https.  It will be
one or the other.

My pmwiki is physically located at:
/srv/www/htdocs/pmwiki

The DocumentRoot for apache is /srv/www/htdocs.

See above.

.htaccess file sitting is /srv/www/htdocs
(apache configed to allow the overrides)

I hope that helps a bit more. (?? sorry I know
this gets messy, every platform is SO different with
their defaults, etc.)
