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

The main difference I see is that Table 11.17 omits a column for "other" reasons, given by sh74x. Perhaps the other differences are related to how that column was handled. Otherwise the differences in percentages are very small. This is a non-standard table and we cannot put more effort into trying to get an exact match.

The only necessary adjustment for the survey design is the use of weights. Adjustments for clustering and stratification do not affect point estimates.
