Where did you get this "ncl" binary? It was not built for Tiger.
If you have access to the source, I'd recommend installing the latest X11 libs from MacPorts and using that for your X11 libraries. While you're at it, you might as well update your X11 server from MacPorts as well.

^^^ This line is your problem. You don't need to explicitly set DISPLAY. 'ssh -Y' sets it for you. If no DISPLAY is set, then the remote ssh server is not configured to allow X11 forwarding. You'll need to edit sshd_config (probably in /etc/ssh) to allow for it.
