Hi,

  Just an Info, may not be relevant. 
  If extended master secret is enabled,(by default on all browsers now a days)
  the computation of master secret is different.

Because s_client is a debugging tool, and a source of example code
that demonstrates many elaborate features of the API from which you
can pic and chose the functions that are useful to you.  The s_client
command is NOT designed to be used for any non-diagnostic purposes.

That's a feature.  You can check when using s_server that both computed
the same key.
