After "make clean" I had to remove the references to the "thread" subdirectory again.  Once the build complete, I still see the crash.  Previously that disappeared after I deleted gui/qterminal/libqterminal/moc_QTerminal.cpp and ran "make" again.  However, as was the case the first time, the new moc_QTerminal.cpp did not contain the "thread" subdirectory reference.

Sorry, but I'm confused by what you're actually doing. First, may I suggest that you build out of the source tree; so a simple "rm -rf <build_dir>" is enough to restart from scratch and avoid any leftovers. Second, I don't get how the moc file could be different, if yo do something like:

make

rm gui/src/qterminal/libqterminal/moc_QTerminal.cpp

make
