Another option could be to use dialer watch. By making sure the EIGRP traffic is clearly identified as NOT interesting, the same results will be achieved.
Since bri's are in use as the backup and frame is the primary, I would probably lean towards dialer watch so you can use a single bri interface to potentially provide cover for multiple pvc's.
