If a native library causes a segmentation fault, the 
complete vm will crash.

So with each native library that you are using you introduce
possible stability degrations.

The creation of segmentation faults is not the only
risk. With each library (native or not) you use, you 
increase the risk to crash tomcat. The libraries might 
introduce application level errors that might stop tomcat 
from working, like memory leaks, file handle leaks, 
deadlocks, ...).

If you can live with this risk depends on your requirements.
In the end you always will have to test if your application
is stable enough with this system.
