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.
