I don't know what the state of the various modelling efforts is, though I imagine this will be a topic at TLS:DIV at the end of the month. We did discuss the various cryptographic changes in -20 (specifically the extra key derive stages and the handshake hash reification) with a number of cryptographers before incorporating.
Perhaps some of the analytic groups on-list would care to comment?

From our* point of view we're pretty happy with the current state of the spec.
Our initial results confirm that TLS achieves the core security properties
(secrecy and authentication). More specifically, we prove an absence of attacks
against those properties in our model.

We're currently waiting for the last version of the spec to be finalised so that we can make a more definitive statement and share our final results. Although we do not expect our analysis to be affected by the recent changes to the spec, we will still need to update our model and re-prove everything, which is quite time consuming. We will be talking at TLS:DIV so can share more then, including what
is and isn't captured by our model.

* Us being the Tamarin team: Cas Cremers, Marko Horvat, Jonathan Hoyland,
Sam Scott, and Thyla van der Merwe.
