Hello.

any help for a newbie

That explains why have you specified everything but the version of dosemu you are trying to run. :)

This is a 64-bit system.

You need to get dosemu sources from CVS in order to compile it for the 64-bit system, but even then it will be compiled in a 32bit compatibility environment, which is basically a pain to setup for the novice. True 64bit support is not complete yet.

I need dosemu for a clipper program.

Try dosbox first and only if that fails, get back to compiling the CVS dosemu for the 64bit system. Alternatively, run the 32bit (i386) linux kernel on your 64bit system - this will work too.

Does it make sense to compile dosemu without the need for vm86plus?

No.
