Notes:

We believe we have found an error regarding the Password Element used in
the example in the appendix.
Curve used in the example: brainpoolP256r1
PE.x used in the example:
29 b2 38 55 81 9f 9c 3f c3 71 ba e2 84 f0 93 a3
a4 fd 34 72 d4 bd 2e 9d f7 15 2d 22 ab 37 aa e6

It appears that this is not a valid point on the given curve. Using
Magma (http://magma.maths.usyd.edu.au/calc/) and the values for
brainpool from https://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc5639#section-3.4 gives a
Legendre Symbol of -1, indicating that y^2 is not a quadratic residue
and therefore that PE.x is not a valid point on the curve. Code used:

a :=
56698187605326110043627228396178346077120614539475214109386828188763884139993;

b :=
17577232497321838841075697789794520262950426058923084567046852300633325438902;

x :=
18859714372486306827330584431184663996963158272766618598705097205657493809894;

p :=
76884956397045344220809746629001649093037950200943055203735601445031516197751;

y2 := (x*x*x + a*x + b) mod p;
ls := LegendreSymbol(y2, p);
print ls;

The PE.x in the example seems to be the PRF output in the third round in
the algorithm in 4.4.1 of the RFC.
In older revisions this value was used directly as the X-Coordinate.
However a) This has changed in newer revisions and
b) The output of the first round is already a valid point and should
therefore be used instead.

The client and server seem to use a different point than the given PE.x on the curve for
their key exchange. The actual value used can be calculated from the
given mask:
PE = (-element) * (mask^-1 mod q)
Actual PE.x:
A7 EE 9B 10 90 C5 DE AF AD FE A2 EC 93 50 1F B8
9E A4 CC 40 2D D5 CE 03 AF 59 FB 4C D1 9B 86 9B

Doing this for the client Element as well gives the same PE.
Using this PE and the given private values also results in the same
premaster secret in the example.

However, the PRF output of the first round (using the base in the
example) is:
AE 80 44 FE 9A 02 7F A3 26 0C B2 4D 26 FB EC FB
0C D3 1A 28 E0 08 79 98 47 6F 48 24 84 28 AA 1B
A1 4C 25 3C E3 00 CF E5
Resulting X-Coordinate ((pwd-tmp mod (p - 1)) + 1)):
00 68 6B 0D 3F C4 98 94 DD 62 1E C0 4F 92 5E 02
9B 2B 15 28 ED ED CA 46 00 72 54 28 1E 9A 6E DC
In decimal:
184490938790914521010164124495537968992184466437601025180409064591686528732
This gives us a Legendre Symbol of 1. This should be the correct PE to
use for the key exchange. The element of the server and client as well
as the premaster and master secret have been adjusted accordingly.
