Following is a response from DHS Research & Data Analysis Director, Tom Pullum:

We won't be able to provide further assistance with this discrepancy. If you plan to do further analysis with the blood pressure data in this South Africa survey, I recommend that you use the standard code (which apparently matches for the other surveys). You can say in a note that there is a small discrepancy for the South Africa survey. I honestly have no idea why there is a discrepancy.
