I'm not certain that you can do that safely; libpcap's code isn't
thread-safe, and I think that, when somebody last asked about this, I
found some places where you could have a problem if you change a capture
filter in one thread while you're capturing in another.

That discussion is probably somewhere in the tcpdump-workers archives.
