Am I right to assume that pwcbsd is a native application and the skype  
you are running here is a linux one? If yes, it looks like there's  
some kernel support missing for this. Try to find out what ioctl this  
is, and you should be a step towards finding out what the problem is...

Bye,
Alexander.
