Subject: how to use qsearch in incremental search?

Normally, quiescence search is used at the end of a tree. It seems to me, that
it makes only sense to do qsearch after the last increment. But if there is a
time limit and after the last increment is no time to do a qsearch (or you must
stop in the middle of the search), the program can have a completly wrong
evaluation. How is this handled in chess programs?
