This depends on #729 . (github has "stacked PRs" in a closed beta now; hopefully soon it'll be publicly available.)

This isn't a spelling fix -- verbing QUIT was perfectly fine to begin with -- but it shows up so often in automatic reports that we might as well reword it.

Regarding "QUITing": the comment was fine as it was, i.e. intended to be
read by programmers.  However, LLMs don't realize that QUIT refers to
the QUIT signal (which we were then verbing to form QUITing), so we
might as well reword it.
