Have you heard of "quiesce" used as a verb? The sentence I'm editing
reads:

"... must be bracketed by MB instructions to quiesce the memory system.
The Istream must also be quiesced before and during the sequence."


If Shakespeare can use "but" as a verb and get away with it, I don't
see why you can't use "quiesce". :)
