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

When doing a merge, I generally retain the weights from the different files. If you are doing analysis that includes the HIV test result, i.e. hiv03, then you use hiv05 as the weight. Otherwise, to analyze other data on men, use mv005, and other data on women, use v005.
