Wild Mage and Practiced Spellcaster

[JiffyPopTart]

So...in a previous discussion there was talk about how Practiced Spellcaster would benefit single class characters. That was in the back of my head when I was perusing the Complete Arcane and read the description for the PrC Wild Mage.

It says you permanantly reduce your caster level by 3, and in return add 1d6 to your caster level whenever you cast a spell.

If I were to take Practiced Spellcaster (Wizard) if I was a Wizard6/WildMage1 would my caster level then be 7+1d6?

I realize the answer is an emphatic NO in the spirit of the rules, but this is a RAW discussion.

PS Another thing that comes to mind discussing Practiced Spellcaster...its a good fit for a single class caster that has taken racial HD levels (Lizardman Druid or somesuch).

FWIW: The Official 3.5 FAQ.

How does Practiced Spellcaster interact with the wild
magic class feature of the wild mage (from Complete
Arcane)?
The –3 penalty and +1d6 bonus to the wild mage’s caster
level are applied as a single step in the process of determining
the wild mage’s caster level. Since Practiced Spellcaster’s
bonus is always applied when it is most beneficial to the
character (see previous answer), a wild mage with Practiced
Spellcaster would typically apply the wild magic class feature
first (subtracting 3 and adding 1d6 to her caster level) and then
add the Practiced Spellcaster benefit, up to a maximum value
equal to her character level.
For example, if a 5th-level wizard/4th-level wild mage with
Practiced Spellcaster rolled a 1 on the 1d6 bonus to her caster
level, her caster level for that spell would be 9th (base 9th, –3
from wild magic penalty, +1 from wild magic bonus, +4 from
Practiced Spellcaster up to a maximum equal to her character
level). If she rolled a 6, her caster level would be 12th (base
9th, –3 from wild magic penalty, +6 from wild magic bonus;
the Practiced Spellcaster bonus would not apply since it would
increase her caster level above her character level).
On the other hand, imagine a wild mage whose caster level
(before applying the effects of the wild magic class feature) is
less than her character level, such as a wild mage with levels of
rogue or other non-spellcasting class. She might well choose to
apply the Practiced Spellcaster bonus first, before applying the
wild magic modifiers. A rogue 4/wizard 5/wild mage 4 would
have a base caster level of 9th before any other modifiers are
applied. Adding Practiced Spellcaster’s bonus would increase
this to 13th, at which point the penalty and bonus from wild
magic would be applied. The Sage recommends that players
averse to frequently recalculating caster level avoid playing a
character with this combination, as it is likely to cause
headaches.
