I ran bitcoin-qt with an old wallet, causing it to rescan, then stopped it with a SIGINT signal, resulting in the following log. Nothing unexpected, so far:
```

```

However, the next time it was launched, the rescan didn't continue, nor did it start over. It seems to have been skipped?

```

I didn't investigate deeply, but could it be that despite the failed rescan, the new tip block was stored in the wallet? if so, this would be confusing.
return startTime;
