Confirmed for wbar 1.3.3 but appears to be fixed in 2.x.
You can get a .deb package from downloads sections and install it with dpkg

Issue 62 revealed that actually the problem was not fixed, it was just hidden.
We stopped setting WM_NAME in 2.x, so Alt+Tab in IceWM would still display it 
but with a line containing no text.
The problem is that IceWM Alt+Tab dialog doesn't honor _NET_WM_SKIP_TASKBAR 
property (while it shoud for IceWM to be NETWM-compliant). Meanwhile, their 
taskbar does honor it, so the problem appears to be cause by a flaw in the 
implementation of Alt+Tab dialog in IceWM. 

You could try reporing a bug to the authors of IceWM or try to work around the 
issue for yourself by setting 
wbar.ignoreWinList: 1
in your '~/.icewm/preferences' file
