With which make and shell version are you seeing this? While the patch
looks correct, I can't reproduce the error here:

$ make V=2
  CHK     include/config/kernel.release
  CHK     include/generated/uapi/linux/version.h
  CHK     include/generated/utsrelease.h
  CALL    scripts/checksyscalls.sh - due to target missing
  CHK     include/generated/compile.h
Kernel: arch/x86/boot/bzImage is ready  (#1)
  Building modules, stage 2.
  MODPOST 12 modules - due to target is PHONY
$ cat arch/x86/realmode/rm/.pasyms.h.cmd
cmd_arch/x86/realmode/rm/pasyms.h := nm arch/x86/realmode/rm/header.o

This is with both 3.16 and my kbuild branch, which is based on 3.16-rc1.
Also, in the description, you say that backslash escaping conflicts with
escaping # and ', but this has nothing to do with the \2 backreference
in the sed command.
