Running a shell builtin in backticks or $() still forks another shell I think.

I don't think so. Tried this snipped with both bash and ksh93, both reported the same PID. Unless I made a logical error here...
Code:
#!/bin/bash

echo $$
echo $( eval 'echo $$' )

You still get the same PID even when you force /bin/echo. $$ is the parent shell's PID.
