Other than the ability to handle multiple substrings, you do realise
you've effectively duplicated str.count()?
I realise that calling this count function with a single argument would
be functionally identical to calling str.count(), yes. But I can imagine
the situation of wanting to find multiple (disjoint) substrings. Is
there a reason for preferring multiple calls to str.count() in such a
case? Or is there a more obvious approach?

Forget that, that was stupid.
