There is a program called pixy which was written specifically for dealing
with this problem, and there is the ImageMagick suite which allows you to
do basically the same thing.
Pixy was written by Romano Giannetti <romano@iet.unipi.it>.
Here's the LSM:

Title: pixy
Version: 3.2
Entered-date: 28MAR96
Description: This program reduces the number of colors used in a set
of XPM (pixmap) files to a fixed predefined set of
colors. Options determine the conversion strategy.
Especially useful for xpm-icon window managers like fvwm
or ctwm. No binary distribution available!
