Should the Page_turn_engraver be \consist-ed when using ly:page-turn-breaking? Though it's not mentioned in the docs, all the relevant regtests include it, and having tested it myself, the spacing variables seem to work fine so long as the engraver's included. For example, removing the Page_turn_engraver from page-turn-page-breaking-auto-first-page2.ly results in very tightly spaced systems on one page; increasing 'shortest-duration-space only loosens up the first system.
