I haven't tried it myself but I suspect you could do this using TIME:

DEF:res=rrdfile.rrd:res:AVERAGE
CDEF:ts=res,POP,TIME
CDEF:res_mult=res,POP,ts,PREV(ts),-
CDEF:res_delta=res,res_mult,*

The "res,POP" construct above is just to get around the requirement that 
a CDEF reference at least one DEF.

Would that get the job done?
