Technically, use of \+ in a sed expression is undefined by POSIX.

Likewise for use of \(, \|, and \).

If you were worried about strict POSIX compliance, you could rewrite
these to use similar expressions that are limited to portable sed:

sed -e "s# table_size=[0-9][0-9]*##g"
sed -e "s# compat6=o[nf]*##g"

(and if the difference of wiping unlikely things like compat6=onfnfn
really matters to one of our tests, then we've got some UI to improve.)
 But since this is the testsuite, which will run primarily on systems
with GNU sed where all four extensions are commonly present for
selecting features of ERE on top of the POSIX-mandated BRE syntax used
by sed, and where encountering a non-GNU sed that doesn't have the same
extensions will probably result in a noisy testsuite failure rather than
silent disk corruption, I'm okay overlooking this non-portable aspect
for now.  (Not to mention that you're not the first offender, seeing
that cluster_size earlier in the context also used \+.)
