Ah I have one way ! 
To get a non-zero .so I left off the "-no-whole-archive -lots".
I have a .so thats 567952 in size
Then I used "strip ibcpml_ev5.so" to remove symbols.

Java now runs and gives me a version number.
java version "1.3.1"
Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition
Classic VM (build 1.3.1-1, native threads, jit)

what though is the -lots mean ?
