Goddlefrood, who claims no expertise at all:

The argument, although a good one, is rather flawed unfortunately. 
It failed to consider certain matters to which we are all privy 
through numerous archives, including JKR's own site, around this 
great cyber realm in which we dwell.

This:

FAQ: "Why could Harry see the Thestrals 'Order of the Phoenix'? 
Shouldn't he have been able to see them much earlier, because 
he saw his parents/Quirrell/Cedric die?"

JKR: "I've been asked this a lot. Harry didn't see his parents 
die. He was in his cot at the time (he was just over a year old) 
and, as I say in `Philosopher's Stone', all he saw was a flash 
of green light. He didn't see Quirrell's death, either. Harry 
had passed out before Quirrell died and was only told about it 
by Dumbledore in the last chapter."

That suggests Quirinus is indeed deceased as far as I am 
concerned. I expect no return by him in DH.

Constant Vigilence in respect of these matters would be the 
prescription methinks ;-)

Goddlefrood who never said Quirrell died in the dungeon unless 
I'm much mistaken.
