Alternatively, you can hack up a table-based layout for MediaWiki. I did
this for our MediaWiki based Intranet & it took all of a couple of hours to
deconstruct monobook & rebuild as nested tables - from there changes were
trivial.

It sounds like what I've done with

It wasn't trivial. Some of the monobook CSS elements have absolute
positioning that I had to change to relative.
I can send you the .css file if you like.
