> Try 'unset *'. Should work.

Not only is "unset" only found in the latest Bourne shell,
but the suggestion does not work anyway.  The wildcard "*"
expands to a list of filenames; unless that happens to
include all the set arguments (which it might, depending
on the application) that is not what is desired.
