I figured out what my problem was.  Evidently the sword tarball
(sword-1.5.0.tar.gz, dated March 15,2000) I got from ftp.crosswire.org has a
couple of problems in the src/modules/filters/Makefile.  It seems that
plainfootnotes.cpp and thmlhtml.cpp are not being compiled and linked and thus
I was getting errors when I tried to compile bibletime.  I added the lines
to compile those files and rebuilt sword and it worked fine.  Here's an
output of the diff -u for the original Makefile and the updated one Makefile.fix

I don't exactly know what I did, but now bibletime works correctly for me.
