I have nothing more to add to Guy's really good explanation. But if you are using Wireshark 1.10.0, be aware that it 
comes bundled with a small utility (found in the installation folder) allowing you to reorder a capture file 
according to the packets timestamp. Simply do:

Having an option to do that within Wireshark might be useful as well.

(Having a way for libpcap/WinPcap to fix that problem might also be useful; that might requiring delaying the 
delivery of packets to libpcap's callers until you're pretty sure some packet with a time stamp before that packet 
won't arrive.)
Please note that such a reordering also happens when capturing from multiple interfaces
with dumpcap/wireshark/tshark.  Possibly the ordering of packets from each interface
is preserved, but not more. However, timestamps can be used to to sort packets.

Best regards
