[Beowulf] Compiling mpiJava on Amd64

[Kozin, I (Igor)]

-o stands for the object you are creating instead of the default.
You should not have removed -o because
otherwise you are trying to link in ../../lib/libmpijava.so
which is obviously not there. You have to add -fPIC to the compiler
(eg to CFLAGS) and make sure all the objects you are using
(eg in the mpi libraries) are coming from *.so or have been compiled 
with -fPIC.
