New issue 1620 by asmeurer: Allow derivatives of unknown functions  
evaluated at a point
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=1620

Most CAS's let you represent things like f(0), f'(0), f''(0), and so on,  
but SymPy only has support for
the first.  We should enable an option in the derivative of a function  
evaluated at a point.  I don't
know what the best syntax would be, probably some argument to diff, like  
point = 0, or point = (1,
2, 3) for something like f'(1, 2, 3).  Not much would need to be  
implemented.  You just need a way
to access the point in the Derivative class and Derivative needs to know to  
subs the point if it is
evaluated.
