This now works as expected for me:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so skype
Closing as fix-released.
** Changed in: v4l-utils (Ubuntu)
Status: New = Fix Released

I have the same problem.

The path is OK, and I have the right version (no PPA), I am still stuck:
$ sudo apt-get install libv4l-0:i386
Reading package lists... Done

ldconfig deferred processing now taking place
$ dpkg -L

Could you please check that $(which skype) is a binary and not a shell
Sorry for the delayed response. I expected to be notified by email on
responses.
If all other programs besides Skype work, please remove any libv4l PPAs,
revert to the official Ubuntu packages and try to figure out the correct
path for the preload line:
dpkg -L libv4l-0:i386 | grep v4l1compat.so
Thanks for the suggestion, I still get this error:

Ubuntu 12.04 uses multiarch instead of the ia32-libs and lib32xxx
packages. Please install libv4l-0:i386 (via apt-get) and change the
preload line to:
LD_PRELOAD=/usr/lib/i386-linux-gnu/libv4l/v4l1compat.so
