Not sure, but I slightly remember that typedeffing a struct like this in
multiple places can cause compiler warnings or errors with certain
versions of GCC or clang? So a file that includes both, fw_cfg.h and
libqtest.h will then fail to compile?

I think it would be better to change the include order in the .c files
instead, so that libqtest.h is always included before fw_cfg.h.
