I've never tried making backups manual-only using 
$Conf{BackupsDisable} = '1'

I always do it with 
$Conf{FullPeriod} = '-1';

It *does* say in the config.pl:
# There are three values for $Conf{BackupsDisable}:
<snip>
#   1    Don't do any regular backups on this client.  Manually
#        requested backups (via the CGI interface) will still occur.

I don't know why the CGI interface would be treated differently from a
command-line invocation of BackupPC_dump; but the wording above does imply
that is a possibility. (Or, there might just be a bug).

So try setting
$Conf{BackupsDisable} = '0';
$Conf{FullPeriod} = '-1';
in config.pl, and see if it does what you want.
