It looks like all you need to do is go into the SimGear/simgear/scene/sky directory and uncomment the "SUBDIR" line in the Makefile.am file. This is the way building the 3d clouds was disabled in the last release. Other than that, I'm not exactly sure how well they are working. They need more work, the most significant step would be moving the rendering over to a plib scene graph. BTW if you are reading about Open GL, you might find plib interesting. It can save a lot of programming time, not to mention it provides a 3D application framework (which FlightGear is using). You may find it useful to work at learning the plib API and then eventually digging deeper to understand the underling Open GL work.
