Answer 1

Just to state the obvious: to load a native library built for a 32bit architecture, you have to force the JVM to start in 32bit mode.

java -d32 ...

Possibly you need to install an older JVM for your platform (eg. Oracle's Java 7 on OS X is 64bit only, you need to get Apple's Java 6 from their knowledge base).
