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

First, it is very important that you use the BR file for the under-five rates, NOT the KR file. The rates include exposure (or risk) from children who were born more than 5 years ago. The b variable that you want, b7, IS in ETBR51FL.dta. It is also in ETKR51FL.dta. I don't know why it would not show up. Perhaps you have modified the file somehow?
