Following is a response from Senior DHS staff member, Tom Pullum:

We recommend using svyset and svy for your final analyses, at least. Your svyset command would look like this: "svyset v001 [pweight=d005], strata(v023) singleunit(centered)". If any of your variables come from the DV module, d005 is preferable to v005, because it is adjusted for nonresponse to the module. The svy adjustments, and the use of d005 in place of v005, will not have a huge effect on your results, but they are strongly recommended.
