I just tried your way and it doesn't work for me (zc1.58).

If "State field - Display as pulldown when possible?" is set to false, no matter under shipping estimate page, nor under the create a new account page, changing the country back and forth will not help for the state/province dropbox. It will only show as a textbox.

In zc1.57d, this option "State - Always display as pulldown?" is set to false and it shows as a dropbox.
