The "+clipboard" is enabled, by using the "--with-x" configure switch,
or just by using "--with-features=huge" - vim then by default will link
against X libraries.
If you want to have "+clientserver" and "+clipboard" features, and you
don't want to build the Gui version (by default in Linux is the GTK+2),
you can use "--with-x --enable-gui=no".

Vim doesn't try (by default) to build the various interpreters
(including Perl and Python), unless you explicitly enable them during
configuration, by using the "--enable-perlinterp" or "--enable-pythoninterp"
configure switches.

So the following should work for you:

./configure --with-features=huge

I left out the --prefix switch; if you don't provide it, Vim installation
will be placed under the "/usr/local" hierarchy by default.
