Thanks for the reply, Gerwin. I really appreciate it.
I have further questions below.

So does it have any implication if it fails wellformedness verification?
i.e., would I still be able to extend the Camkes proof to prove functional
correctness of the component's code?
 Btw, how can I access generated Isabelle theorems from Camkes. I'm using
Camkes from the public master branch. I think I could access generated glue
code and capdl C specification (e.g., for hello-camkes-1 example, it's in
hello-camkes-1_build/capdl_spec.c) but I couldnt find any generated RPC
stub and system initialization theorems.
