Er no.
In the cinema this did not happen at all. The version you have "accquired" is most likely an exact copy of the reels with the countdown into the film at the start of each reel.
Buy the dvd and you'll see what I mean.

The one I saw had a clapperboard and Quentin shouting action.

Yeah I think this is the problem with having a pirate copy of a film... there is a chance of being dodgy and not truly represented.

The version that was available to download pretty much from the day of the theatrical release has the countdowns etc. in it. It didn't happen in the cinema and it doesn't happen on the DVD. Apart from that I didn't notice any difference between the downloaded version and the theatrical release.

That version is a "workprint" - a not-complete edit of the film. Sometimes workprints are the complete versions picture wise, but stuff like ADR, SFX and music tracks are not yet added.
I have a few workprints in my collection - the best ones being Hulk (not all the CGI is complete and when he is whizzing the tanks round his head, his trousers disappear showing hulk butt), and the first 2 episodes of Season 5 of Angel - all the wires from the stunt work are still there and some SFX is missing. Sometimes they can be a better watch than the finished version.
Going back to Kill Bill, the other version I saw went black and white when Uma Thurman went medieval on those chinese guys with the sworRAB - was that deliberate or is the final version in gory bloody techicolor?

The fight in the House Of Blue Leaves goes black and white in the US and European versions. Its so that the gore is less intense and was the only way it could get past the censors.
The Japanese got to see a more 'extreme' and uncut version, the highlight of that is that the scene is shown in more detail and in colour.
Going to b/w is also a homage to the old Japanese films that had to do this years ago in order to pass the censors. Tarantino uses the same trick that they did in order to keep the scene in the movie.
