Look at 4-15-6.
During an interrupted dribble:
No closely guarded count.
No player control foul.
No time-out granted.
No out of bounds violation on the player.
In short, nothing associated with a dribble is in effect during an interrupted dribble and I am quite comfortable that this includes the ball maintaining backcourt status.
I think it is also important to note that time is not a factor here. There is no minimum time involved in an interrupted dribble. The key is loss of control.
