You may or might not even have the problem, it depends. It all depends on wherever the image data comes from in from. It could already be in the correct order it could not be. If Window Maker uses a library for conversion, perhaps Debian changed it?
However there could be a detection mechanism. Send Window Maker an icon of a single color (red for example) or a much better sequence #336699 then determine if byte swapping is even neccessary. Which distro is your PPC system and which wmaker-crm are you using along with all of the dependencies it uses.
