In Poser, load both the 17K version and an original V4.  Select the LOD and then do a 'Copy Joint Zones From' the original V4.  Save the figure back to the library.  Load into DS and attempt to pose.  I have both a 17k V4 and M4 that I can load into DS without pose distortions.  The parameter morphs dials don't work but they're posable.  Same method.
