I am not sure if I understand what you want correctly: do you mean that 
no suspensions associated with
the variable will remain suspended once that variable is  bound?  If 
this is what you want, you can test the suspnesions associated with the 
variable with is_suspension/1 once you have instantiated your variable.
You can obtain the suspension either by suspending your goals with 
suspend/4, or you could get them for a particular variable with 
suspensions/2 (before you instantiate the variable!).

If you are really talking about the general case that you have *no* 
suspensions left, you can get a list of all live suspensions with 
suspensions/1.

Cheers,
