It might be possible to do it disabled, but I would suggest to enable
this as this is the default for most developers and you may have an
easier job...

dissect_ber_choice was renamed to:

dissect_ber_CHOICE

this was changed in epan/libethereal.def several weeks ago.

Which sources are you using? 

If you use subversion (which I recommend), you should update to latest version.

If you use the releases, you may try to rename the definition in libethereal.def to dissect_ber_CHOICE, 
but I would recommend to use subversion sources instead.
