JVM will access your "C libs" just fine, but the code written for JVM usually stays under JVM.
I am sure it's possible to go the opposite direction, but then there is "fun" of dragging this fat pig alongside your application. I.e. JVM bytecode is as useful as a swap file to CRuby, CPython, C, Haskell, OCaml and millions of other programmers. Linux would have died long ago if JVM took off. I'm glad it didn't.
Got an idea for a cool open source project? Don't bury it under 6 feet of JVM. Please.
