OK, I came across this - http://www-306.ibm.com/software/data/db2/db2olap/v81docs/zosinst/olapz81tfrm.htm?olapz8132.htm which talks about issuing the following command against java to make the libraries apf and program controlled when running with DB2 OLAP but it presumably applies to any apf authorized application running java. Anyhow I ran the commands - extattr +ap $JAVA_HOME/bin/*.so $JAVA_HOME/bin/classic/*.so and the problems went away. If this is required as it seems it is, then I'm surprised I can't find anything on the Java website or in the WebSphere documentation. I'm also surprised that no one on this list has come across it.
