 We should define a new symbolic function for the derivative of `ceil` or
 `floor`.

 In Maple:

 {{{
 > diff(floor(x),x);
                                   floor(1, x)
 > diff(floor(x),x,x);
                                   floor(1, x)
 > diff(ceil(x),x,x);
                                   floor(1, x)
 > eval(diff(ceil(x),x,x),x=1.5);
                                        0
 > eval(diff(ceil(x),x,x),x=0);
 Error, (in floor) floor is not differentiable at integers
 }}}
