The reason why I am curious is because https://ss64.com/mac/sed.html
claims that -E works.

It does for me, on my Mac, which is deliberately behind current: I am
still on Big Sur.

Josh, the topic has been cooking in 'next' long enough to graduate
to 'master' without anybody else complaining.  Could you
double-check and if possible see what is different in your
environment from others?

I can hold the topic in 'next' longer but not forever without
progress.  Help from macOS folks (if it is macOS specific issue)
is greatly appreciated.

I checked my High Sierra installation (macOS 10.13) which is even
older than Big Sur (macOS 11), and High Sierra's "sed" also
understands -E.

Hi folks, sorry for the false alarm and the delayed response. For some
reason our build environment has a >decade old version of sed. I'm still
tracking down why that is, but please do not hold back this topic any
longer due to our out-of-date-ness. Sorry again!
