OK, I know nothing about libtool so this might not be possible, but
IMO the easiest way of making a dramatic difference is to cease to
compile every file twice, once with PIC and once without.  There would
be a small performance regression for statically linked Java apps, but
in practice Java is very hard to use with static linkage.
