Hi people, I'm attaching a patch for the Native loadLibrary method. Basically, after the first load failure, retries adding the "lib" prefix to the specified library. This is a concrete case for VideoLAN (I'm the author of the videolan java bindings with JNA). What do you think about it?

Cheers, Filippo
