Thank you for reporting this problem in Ubuntu.
This looks either like bitrot in the Mesa3D software renderer for the venerable PPC or else bitrot in the Compiz texture loading on big-endian hardware. Since we have neither the maintainers nor the hardware to even confirm the problem upstream in Compiz, I'm going to have to leave this bug as New for the antiques enthusiasts to play with.
Patches are welcome upstream.
