According to WinPcap faq WinPcap 3.1 (stable) or WinPcap before 4.0 beta3 (testing) should work.

Now the question is how WinPcap API (userspace) is stable :)

Much of the WinPcap API is just the pcap API, which should be *very* stable, even at the ABI level.  The 
Windows-specific extensions are probably pretty stable as well.  The packet.dll interface is, I think, explicitly *not* 
guaranteed to be stable.

Installing newer versions of Wireshark on Windows OT might require you to manually install the older version of 
WinPcap, however.
