As I recall the problem is actually with the file \includes\modules\phpbb2\templates\subSilver\overall_header.tpl
it repeats the html and body tags already in modules.php which confuses everything. I had to pull all the CSS code out and put it into a separate css file called by modules.php then remove the head and body tags so the new overall_header.tpl code is like this:
<!-- BEGIN switch_enable_pm_popup -->
<script language="Javascript" type="text/javascript">
<!--
if ( {PRIVATE_MESSAGE_NEW_FLAG} )
{
window.open('{U_PRIVATEMSGS_POPUP}', '_phpbbprivmsg', 'HEIGHT=225,resizable=yes,WIDTH=400');;
}
//-->
</script>
<!-- END switch_enable_pm_popup -->

As I recently got this all working I will try and post my working version as an addition to this contrib over the weekend. Mind you most of my problems came from the need to accomodate the STS template contrib as well, so may not be of use to all.
