I did look at your change it gives bit following better error message than the past
parse error: tapset file '/usr/local/share/systemtap/tapset/tcp.stp' is already
processed as the user script.
Pass 1: parse failed. Try again with more '-v' (verbose) options.

But it is still not at all clear in my opinion to someone who is not initimately
familiar with the project and implementation. I would prefer to see a message
some what like 
"tapset files can not be run directly. Please run a user script that uses the
required tapset."
