well, i will take care of all the places in the core that define a
sq_contains method (not many), and i don't believe many extension
types implement it themselves, so the impact is expected to
be marginal.

as for the tweak in cmp_outcome, it's outside the eval-loop, so
there's no reason for a performance penalty.
