This applies to all types of containers - in Fortress mode it's only animal traps and cages, while in Adventurer mode it also includes backpacks, quivers, waterskins, bags, barrels, and any other type of container you might find.

I can confirm that this happens with cages; I recently had a half dozen small tame creatures escape from an artifact cage immediately upon being placed within it. I have, otherwise, never had a tame creature escape from confinement.

The following binary patch fixes this problem in Win32 v0.34.11 SDL:
0x329E14 : 00 -> 01

This patch could lead to hilarity with Elven caravans - they bring all sorts of vermin in wooden cages, and any with [GNAWER] would immediately escape upon arrival.

I can confirm Quietust's prediction of hilarity: gnawing vermin brought by elven caravans escape immediately upon the caravan's entry, with this patch in place.
