Not an expert either, but section 7.4 of the TLS 1.2 spec (rfc 5246)
does seem to say that this ServerHelloDone should be a Finished
message instead.

Do you mean that the client says this? If so, this may obviously be
correct if the server sends the wrong message. Pehaps you can test
with a different server implementation?
