(if we only need one, I won't have to think so hard about the others - if we only need one, which I think we do (specifically the "(unique_ptr<Unit>, unsigned offset)")) - if we don't, please just delete the two unneeded ones in a preliminary cleanup patch to simplify this one.

Since we're already relying on heterogenous comparisons here, I think it's safe to remove the other two.
As for language lawyering - it looks like the changes proposed here: http://www.open-std.org/jtc1/sc22/wg21/docs/lwg-defects.html#270 were applied to C++11, where the final wording says:
"The elements e of [first,last) shall be partitioned with respect to the expression ... comp(e, value)."
