Following is a response from Senior DHS Stata Specialist, Tom Pullum:

Hi Tracy-- You are right that there could not possibly be 1037 strata. If this number is greater than 60 or so then you should be suspicious. This kind of error will indeed cause a regression to fail.

What survey and file are you using? In some less recent surveys the stratum variable is misidentified.
