You are right, this thread isn't about the standard and you indeed provided an interesting use case where quoting the curly braces has an effect.
It does because quotes are themselves quoted and thus propagated to the exec command.

sdl-config
sdl-config(1) General Commands Manual sdl-config(1)
NAME
sdl-config - script to get information about the installed version of SDL
SYNOPSIS
sdl-config [ --prefix[=DIR] ] [ --exec-prefix[=DIR] ] [ --version ] [ --cflags ] [ --libs ] [ --static-libs ]
DESCRIPTION
sdl-config is a tool that is used to configure and determine the compiler and linker flags that should be used to compile and link pro-
grams, and libraries, and plugins that use SDL. It is also used internally by the m4 macros that are included with SDL.
OPTIONS
--cflags
Print the compiler flags that are necessary to compile a program or library that uses SDL.
--exec-prefix=DIR
If specified, use DIR instead of the installation exec prefix that SDL was build with when computing the output for the --exec-pre-
fix option. This option must be specified before any of the --cflags, and --libs options.
--libs Print the linker flags that are necessary to link a program that uses SDL.
--prefix=DIR
If specified, use DIR instead of the installation prefix that SDL was built with when computing the output for the --prefix, and
--exec-prefix options. This option is also used for the exec prefix if --exec-prefix was not specified. This option must be speci-
fied before any of the --cflags, and --libs options.
--static-libs
Print the linker flags that are necessary to statically link a program that uses SDL.
--version
Prints the currently installed version of SDL on standard output.
EXAMPLES
gcc -o main.o $(sdl-config --cflags) main.c
is how you might use sdl-config to compile a C source file for an executable program.
gcc -o my_app $(sdl-config --libs) main.o util.o
is how you might use sdl-config to link compiled objects into an executable program.
