title says it all - if you set $wgStyleDirectory = "$IP/foo" one would expect the resource loader to look in foo not skins for the bits in skins, but it has skins hardcoded. On the other hand I personally don't see what benefit wgStyleDirectory has over using a symbolic link if you really had to have the style directory somewhere else than the default, so perhaps the global should just be removed...
wgStyleDirectory probably was useful to access skins/common, which used to contain "shared" scripts and images. However, I don't know if that is still recommended for trunk.
Ahm.. it does look weird now in Resources.php registry: 'remoteBasePath' => $GLOBALS['wgStylePath'], 'localBasePath' => "{$GLOBALS['IP']}/skins", it's used for remote but not for local, should be a simple fix by putting $wgStyleDirectory there.. no ?

Yeah, that'll work, as long as that var has a sane default. Go for it.
Fixed in r89615.
