Yeah, forward-porting the mediawiki skin changes was by far the
trickiest part of the mediawiki upgrade.

Hmm, where is that?

Hmm, I wonder if it would be better to change it in the skin files
instead -- see var/lib/mediawiki/skins/PostgreSQL in the
pginfra-wrap-mediawiki package.

I see that skins/PostgreSQL/resources/variables.less has this line
@content-background: #ffffff;
(this value is referenced elsewhere in the skin files) but apparently
it's being ignored or something ...
