The curly braces are allowed and valid syntax, but I haven't seen many
uses of them. Historically only $() was a documented feature, while ${}
was accepted as equivalent but undocumented. Apparently ${} is more
common on BSD or in older makefiles. According to Wikipedia[0], the ${}
variant is "rarely used". While Wikipedia isn't necessarily an
authoritative source, it certainly corresponds with my experience in
this case.
