By simple geometry the forward wing of a dihedraled pair in a skid
will have the steepest angle of attack, and the greatest amount of
lift, and therefore the one most likely to stall. (Not the wing
inside inside of the skid.) Aileron use will not change that --
except they force the aircraft to remain in a skid when operated
"crossed controlled."

Aileron use affects the effective angle of attack of a wing. One way to turn
mere wing drop (caused by a stall or near-stall) into a real spin is to use
aileron to try to raise the stalled wing. This is one of thse disturbing cases
where a pilot's instinctive reaction can kill!

If you don't believe me, listen to Wolfgang:
(Stick & Rudder by Wolfgang Langewiesche, Page 166. "Under some conditions, an
aileron that is set to lift a drooping wing may actually stall that wing and
drop it viciously.")
