SUBSTRING is not a string-comparison function.

>string-any   pred s [start end] -> value

Why not allow using CHAR/CHAR-SET/PRED here?

>string-contains    s1 s2 [start1 end1 start2 end2] -> integer or false
>string-contains-ci s1 s2 [start1 end1 start2 end2] -> integer or false

This comment does not belong in the final SRFI document.
