You can't create a clipboard directly, you have to call
Gtk.Clipboard.Get() or Gtk.Clipboard.GetForDisplay() to get one of the
standard ones.

f-spot shows how to use this (in src/MainWindow.cs). I'd give a link to
the source code, but ViewCVS on cvs.gnome.org seems to be broken right
now after the migration. Try googling for Gtk.Clipboard.Get and
Gtk.Clipboard.GetForDisplay.
