It's definatly a thousand times nicer :) The only thing that I disagree 
with (probably because I don't know enough) is if you can still remove 
that concept requirement. I only left one concept requirement 
(EqualityComparable) and I don't think you are allowed to remove that, 
as the concept requirements in adjacent_find won't pick up directly that 
*__first isn't EqualityComparable (it will just check that 
__gnu__cxx::equal::operator() takes two parameters of type 
_ForwardIterator). Of course that particular concept requirement is not 
entirely needed anyway, because the code simply won't compile anyway if 
it isn't true, but I'm not sure if it can be removed....
