A comment on this. In the last couple of years I've been actually thinking of dumping the rpcap support out of 
WinPcap. The reason is that such code is pretty much unmaintained, I struggle to have the patch compile on Windows 
every time, let linux (and all the other OSes supported by libpcap) aside. Having rpcapd support integrated into 
libpcap would definitely make my life much easier, but code maintenance can be an issue. 

Well, if it's integrated into libpcap, failures to compile would show up pretty quickly....
