I'm pretty sure the current skype binaries are 32bit only and if you are running a 64bit vversion of linux it is likely the libv4l you have installed and are using is a native 64bit version. You will need to install the 32bit version of libv4l either as a binary package or compile it as a 32bit library yourself.
