Comment #7 on issue 2386 by matt...@gmail.com: gosper(...) is missing tests and docstring
http://code.google.com/p/sympy/issues/detail?id=2386

gamma(x + 1) still works:

In [3]: gamma(x + 1).series(x, 0, 3)
Out[3]:
                    2           2    2  2
                   x ⋅EulerGamma    π ⋅x
1 - x⋅EulerGamma + ────────────── + ───── + O(x**3)
                         2            12

After my commit factorial(x) doesn't rewrite to gamma(x + 1) automatically any more, so this is the reason for the failure. I think series() shouldn't depend too much on automatic rewriting and figure out factorial(x) -> gamma(x + 1) on its own (this will be a generic pattern for combinatorial functions).

Side note: even if it fails it shouldn't fail with "Derivative expects (...)" which is completely meaningless in this situation (this should give Series(factorial(x), ...) right now).
