In Lightroom 4.4 on Mac, I have some photos that are included in multiple collections. Is there a way to check which collections a particular photo belongs to, so I can compare a small collection against several larger ones? If Lightroom has a built-in way to do this, I’d prefer that over scripting.

Try right-clicking a picture and find the option "Go to Collection". It should contain the list of collections where that picture is.

Yes. In Lightroom, right-click the photo and use Go to Collection. That menu shows the collections containing that image, and you can jump directly to one of them from there. For your use case, you can check each photo in the small collection this way to see whether it also appears in any of the larger collections.
