The single quotes seem to be what is officially recommended.  There seems
to be a way to make older Django versions require the quotes as well
by doing {% load url from future %}, see also
http://django.readthedocs.org/en/latest/releases/1.5.html:

One deprecated feature worth noting is the shift to “new-style” url tag.
Prior to Django 1.3, syntax like {% url myview %} was interpreted
incorrectly (Django considered "myview" to be a literal name of a view,
not a template variable named myview). Django 1.3 and above introduced
the {% load url from future %} syntax to bring in the corrected behavior
where myview was seen as a variable.

The upshot of this is that if you are not using {% load url from future %}
in your templates, you’ll need to change tags like {% url myview %} to
{% url "myview" %}. If you were using {% load url from future %} you can
simply remove that line under Django 1.5.
