john,
That is a linker-related error. The bbn library uses omnithreads (as,
back in the day, did GNURadio).
Your best bet is likely going be to modify the BBN code to use
boost::threads (as GNURadio does currently). I believe there are some
discussions about this in the mailing list archives.
You could also try to install omnithreads and compile/link against it.

Good luck,

Doug
