According to the epan/proto.c revision history, the million item check was
added in r19767 on November 1, 2006. This was a couple of releases after the
name change, so there are no versions of Ethereal with this feature.
If you want to try debugging the issue you might try setting the
WIRESHARK_ABORT_ON_DISSECTOR_BUG environment variable. This should at least
give you a core dump / stack trace to work with.
