I found another (possibly better) way to fix this:

If I change it to use awk instead of sed, it works with mawk, gawk, and macOS awk:
unset $(set | awk -F '=' '/^__gitcomp_builtin_[a-zA-Z0-9_][a-zA-Z0-9_]*=/ {print $1}') 2>/dev/null

I compared sed vs. awk on Linux and Mac and they all take about the same amount of time to run (within 0.002ms).
