The most likely reason for this is that ncc can't find avr-gcc. Check
that it's installed correctly. If it is, run the ncc command used to
build your app, with an added -fnesc-verbose option (you can often
just do: "CFLAGS=-fnesc-verbose make micaz"). The first line should be
  avr-gcc -v -x c /dev/null -E -dM -mmcu=atmega128

Try running that command standalone.
