I managed to get Crashplan 4.4.1 up and running on my NAS (ReadyNAS Ultra 4). All I had to do was to swap out the x64 JRE package with the 586 version instead, after completing the usual install. The install.defaults file contains the URL for the correct file, so just download that one:
(I'm doing all of this in ~/crashplan-install/)
wget http://download.code42.com/installs/proserver/jre/jre-7-linux-i586.tgz
then unpack and swap the x64 version with the 586 version:
tar -zxf jre-7-linux-i586.tgz
mv /usr/local/crashplan/jre/ /usr/local/crashplan/jre-x64
mv ~/crashplan-install/jre /usr/local/crashplan/jre
then start the Crashplan service. Voila!
Obviously, the installer picks the wrong architecture for the NAS. Hope this helps.

Yeah, that appears to be the issue... the Crashplan installer script does not pick the correct architecture for the ReadyNAS Ultra4+ it seems. I guess we should report that to them, but that said, we are shoe-horning the vanilla "Linux" install onto a NAS, which they show as unsupported.
Thanks all. Hope this helps others in the same boat.
