Yes rpmjni.cc is compiled unconditionally so that wrapper symbols are constant in libraries
identical to every other rpmXY wrapping.

Meanwhile — if WITH_JNI_EMBED is undefined — you end up with an empty pool allocation
(empty == the JVM is not instantiated, bean shell isn’t loaded, any/all calls return error).

Currently with CVS
	$ rpm -q gcc
	gcc-6.3.1-1.fc26.x86_64
and (AFAIR) gcc6 was used on rpm-5.4.17 (see 5.4.17 INSTALLATION for tools used).

Adding
	#undef WITH_JNIEMBED
at top of rpmio/rpmjni.cc SHOULD disable JVM no matter what.

The other way to eliminate is to remove the pool deallocations in rpmio/rpmio.c rpmioClean()
by commenting out
    RPMIOPOOL_INTERP_FREE(js)
    RPMIOPOOL_INTERP_FREE(jni)
	
to address your reported failures
	skipping rpmjni.cc <http://rpmjni.cc/> from makefile of course yields linking error:
	./.libs/librpmio.so: undefined reference to `_rpmjniI'
	./.libs/librpmio.so: undefined reference to `_rpmjniPool'
	collect2: error: ld returned 1 exit status
as those are just artifacts used to clean up allocations of the empty rpmjni wrapper.

So you don’t want RPM+JAVA.
