Considering that I use x86_64 Linux, I wonder if there is some possibility to call 64bit C library or I'd have to compile it as 32bit?
You can only call 32bits libraries. Mainstream Linux distributions have both 32 and 64 so there is no theoretical problem here. The only problem is that it makes installation harder unless you package your app with distribution-specific tools.
