It seems I did not tried enough. The following is working:

  #(set-default-paper-size "a6")
  \paper{ #(define page-breaking ly:page-turn-breaking) }
  \repeat unfold 2 { c'1 \break }
  \allowPageTurn
  \repeat unfold 2 { c'1 \break }
  \pageBreak
  \noPageTurn
  \repeat unfold 3 { c'1 \break }

==>
  _1__   _2__   _3__
 |====| |====| |====|
 |    | |    | |====|
 |====| |====| |====|
  ----   ----   ---- 

However, when removing the \allowPageTurn, the page break occurs between
page-1 and page-2, ie at a page turn, although it is forbidden:

  _1__   _2__
 |====| |====|
 |====| |====|
 |====| |====|
 |====| |    |
  ----   ----
