I'm surprised that this post hasn't yet got any reply.

Once you have the source, you may select compile-time options. See
http://users.skynet.be/antoine.mechelynck/vim/compunix.htm for details.
Don't forget to "make reconfig" (or "make config" followed by "make")
after you change (or set for the first time) the environment variables
for your configure parameters.

Of course, in order to compile with Perl and Python, you will need not
only the Perl and Python interpreters installed, but also the files
needed to integrate them into C. I don't know how FreeBSD does it, but
on Linux that would mean making sure that the Perl and Python -devel
(RedHat, SuSE, etc.) or -dev (debian, Ubuntu, etc.) packages are installed.

Best regards,
Tony.
