If you are using netpbm-10.19 or after, try to use ppmquant 
without "-floyd" option, that is, modify 2 lines in your pstoimg:

 $reduce_color = "$PPMQUANT -floyd 256";

to 

 $reduce_color = "$PPMQUANT 256";

ppmquant was modified in netpbm-10.19 and may fail some 
environment (Document of ppmquant says it is obsolete).
