Yup, compface takes Blit ikon format input.

This works
% xbmtoikon < face.xbm | compface

using xbmtoikon from
ftp://ftp.cs.indiana.edu/picons/ftp/src/bits-2.6.tar.Z.
| I got compface w/ the faces-1.6.1-11.i386.rpm that I found at

compface should be the same, but that xbm2ikon script may be old.

See above.
