I don't think they are suppose to.  There's probably some
magic that pulls them in.  Your binaries might think they
are i386, so I'd try 'ln -s amd64 i386' in
/usr/local/jdk1.5.0/jre/lib and see what happens.

You can try also try fiddling with LD_TRACE_LOADED_OBJECTS
and friends (man rtld) to see if you can get it to spit
out from where java/jre are trying to load these libraries.
If you can figure that out, you can hack around it by
copying/creating symlinks.  If you get that working, you
might try rebuilding again using jdk15 and seeing if that
fixes it.
