I get the following error when I try to load the pdfnet library on a (specific) Linux machine.

Further up in the log there is the following warning (which might be related or not):
Java HotSpot(TM) 64-Bit Server VM warning: You have loaded library /usr/lib64/libPDFNetC.so.6.3.2 which might have disabled stack guard. The VM will try to fix the stack guard now. It's highly recommended that you fix the library with 'execstack -c <libfile>', or link it with '-z noexecstack'.
I am using the latest Pdfnet for Java distribution (v.6.3.2 (updated on October 31, 2014), http://www.pdftron.com/downloads/PDFNetC64.tar.gz).
I have set the library path, placed the library there and created the symlink as per the instructions. I am using pdfnet from a web application in Tomcat 6 (6.0.24-62.el6), with Java 7 (1.7.0_55).
This is my environment:

I have other machines (Windows, and one more Linux machine) where everything works well. The well-behaving Linux has somewhat different environment properties though (Linux chive-me 2.6.32-358.18.1.el6.x86_64 #1 SMP Wed Aug 28 17:19:38 UTC 2013 x86_64 x86_64 x86_64 GNU/Linux; CentOS release 6.4 (Final); Java 1.7.0_40-b43).
Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.
