That's noted in the commit log:
- replaced `command` with $(command) for current POSIX standard
that doesnt make any sense. both forms are perfectly supported in POSIX and
have been for pretty much all time, and neither is preferred by the standard
over the other.
I won't make any claims that this is authoritative, but:

From what I understand (and I may very well be wrong), backticks are
deprecated in newer bash as well.
Granted, the reasons for the (alleged) deprecated don't apply here,
as these aren't nested backticks, but the change doesn't hurt anything
either.
