Ok, this code here seems to do exactly what you want and is simpler.
Explain what it's not doing that you wanted in addition:
\define showSkillParent()
<ul>
<!-- BEGIN: Get a list of skill-categories. -->
<$list filter="[tag[skill-cat]]">
<li><$view field="title"/>
<<showParentChildren>>
</li>
</$list>
</ul>
\end
\define showParentChildren()
<ul>
<$list filter="[tag<currentTiddler>]">
<li><$view field="title"/></li>
</$list>
</ul>
\end
<<showSkillParent>>
Good luck!
Mark
