I know that feeding "-F 1" rate in and specifying the "-p" (2:3 pulldown) and "-F 4" flags _will_ work - I've done it. ++ WARN: [mpeg2enc] Specified display frame-rate 29.97 will over-ride ++ WARN: [mpeg2enc] (different!) frame-rate 23.98 of the input stream INFO: [mpeg2enc] Progressive input - selecting progressive encoding.

That sounds like what you're going to be doing and it'll work just fine I wouldn't try putting straight -F1 content on a DVD - not sure if that would be compatible with everyone's players and TV sets. But a 2:3 pulldown with progressive content is ok.
