According to PHP Manual (http://www.php.net/language.types.string) curly
brackets are not escaped with backslash. Escape worked in older PHP
versions. It does not work in 5.1.1+.

http://bugs.php.net/35411
These two (fixed and closed) bugs diff from mine I think:
31341: $ \{ => $ \{
vs.
35411: \{$string} => {$string}
vs.
my problem with PHP 5.1.5/5.2.1: \${string} => \{abc}
vs.
PHP4: \{$string} => {abc}
So with PHP 5.1.5 and PHP 5.2.1 curly braces *are* escaped (they are
still output) but the backslash is output as well. If they would not be
escaped at all I would have expected \abc. I still think the PHP4 way
has the lowest WTF factor.
Is this behaviour an oversight (and I should open a bug report) or is
this intentional? I'm still not sure.
