Following is a response from DHS Specialist, Tom Pullum:

Your procedure looks fine, except that whenever you use the HIV data you should use HIV05 as the weight. This differs somewhat from V005 (the women's weight) and MV005 (the men's weight), to compensate for the pattern of non-response. I hope that with this change you will be able to match the report.

Please ask again if that does not resolve the inconsistency.
