Dear Prafulla Wadaskar,

Hm... I have no idea what you are trying to do, or why. You are aware
that image_get_header_size()  is  a  static  inline,  returning  just
"sizeof (image_header_t)"?

As far as the context of mkimage goes, you could as well consider it a
constant.

We don't allow variable declarations in the middle of the code.
