I added the path to the library to the $PATH variable, to no avail, still getting the same error:

weblogic:/appl/staging #
> java -d64 -jar wls1035_upgrade_generic.jar -log=/appl/weblogic/wlsinstall_1035.log - Djava.io.tmpdir=/appl/staging
/usr/lib/hpux64/dld.so: Unable to find library 'libace.so'.

# This is where the library is located:

Check SHLIB_PATH and/or LD_LIBRARY_PATH

$PATH is only for looking up commands and sourcing files, not shlibs.  As Patrick said, you should be using LD_LIBRARY_PATH.

it depends on the "bitness" of the application:

For 32 bit apps, set the environment variable SHLIB_PATH

For 64 bit apps, set the environment variable LD_LIBRARY_PATH

Not really.  If you aren't using Aries on Integrity, LD_LIBRARY_PATH will work.
