Or use a hack for a work-around:

Place a copy of /usr/include/sys/kstat.h into the Net/ directory of the toolkit.
Edit that file to change the "string" definition to "String":

# diff kstat.h /usr/include/sys
439c439
<               } String;
---
 >               } string;

Edit tcptop to include this kstat.h:

# diff tcptop tcptop.sav
111c111
< /usr/sbin/dtrace -I. -Cs <( print -r '
---
 > /usr/sbin/dtrace -Cs <( print -r '
126d125
< #include "kstat.h"

# ./tcptop
Tracing... Please wait.
