I think it is context dependent.  I would say:

"I think this child has made a good set of adaptions to her difficult
home environment" (object of sentence).

"His adaptation to living in France has been multi-facited" (subject
of sentence).

It smacks to me of the horrible American usage of words, like saying
"orientated" when all they mean is "oriented" <g>.   Simpler is
better, so adaption might win in the end.
