I'd been using a build directory. But I want to thank you for the suggestion 
of make -jn that sped up compilation time as I could say make -j2 to use both 
cores. I had wondered why kdevelop always did make -j2 on my own front-end. 
Sadly, though, I had to run it without the -j2 because the handbook PDF 
generator kept running out of memory (I've only got 1GB of ram and I run KDE 
🙃) I had been building on a flash drive formatted to exfat. I moved the 
bibletime source directory over to an SD card formatted to ext4, and aside 
from a compilation time speedup from that, it worked so I think my exfat drive 
was not honoring case sensitivity on the BibleTime directory in the build 
directory. So now all I need to do is get enough memory to get the PDF 
handbooks built. Unless there's an option I can use to turn that off.

I'm running openSUSE Tumbleweed latest snapshot.
