Not being familiar with this code, I'll hazard a guess, anyway 8-).
Usually what causes that particular error message in my code, is a missing
typedef or #define that declares what 'tga_hdr' is.  The error message is
a little misleading in saying that the parse failure occurs *before* the
item in question, but it at least helps you to zero in on it.  Hope this
helps.
