Derivative quotient limits on partial domains

The usual zero-over-zero L'Hopital rule requires the denominator's derivative to be nonzero throughout a sufficiently small deleted neighborhood. A limit taken only where that derivative is nonzero is insufficient. An explicit counterexample uses $x_n=2^{-n}$, $h_n=4^{-n}$, $S(u)=3u^2-2u^3$ and $q(u)=16u^2(1-u{)}^2$. On $[3x_n/4,x_n]$ put $g=h_n$ and $f=h_{n}q((x-3x_n/4)/(x_n/4))$. On $[x_n/2,3x_n/4]$ put $g=h_{n+1}+(h_n-h_{n+1})S((x-x_n/2)/(x_n/4))$ and $f=0$. Extend $g=1,f=0$ beyond one. Values and first derivatives agree at the joins, both functions tend to zero, and $g$ is positive. Where $g^{\prime }\ne 0$, it lies inside a transition interval and $f^{\prime }=0$. Thus $f^{\prime }/g^{\prime }$ has natural-domain limit zero, but $f/g$ equals zero at $x_n$ and one at $7x_n/8$, so has no limit.
