The problem is, this scene is open for many interpretations (if it 
really contains forshadowing). You can as well say, Charlie and Ginny 
were the two, who were not in the boggart form (at leats not while 
Harry was there), so maybe in the end they are the two who will end 
up dead. Another scene that MIGHT contain forshadowing was, that 
Harry, Ginny and Neville were sort of hypnotised by the archway in 
the Death Chamber. Ron and Hermione weren't, and, although she said 
that she heard the voices as well, Luna also didn't seem to be in a 
trance. This might mean, that Harry, Neville and Ginny all will die. 
But we just don't know it. I think we have to wait till the end to 
say, which scenes are real forshadowing and which aren't.
