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.
WaetLogPrintf("Rescan started from block %s...\n", start_block.ToString());
    fAbortRescan = false;
    ShowProgress(strprintf("%s " + _("Rescanning…").translated, GetDisplayName()), 0); // show rescan progress in GUI as dialog or on splashscreen, if rescan required on startup (e.g. due to corruption)
    uint256 tip_hash = WITH_LOCK(cs_, return GetLastBlockHash());
    uint256 end_hash = tip_hash;
    if (max_height) chain().findAncestorByHeight(tip_hash, *max_height, FoundBlock().hash(end_hash));
    double progress_begin = chain().guessVerificationProgress(block_hash);
    double progress_end = chain().guessVerificationProgress(end_hash);
    double progress_current = progress_begin;
    int block_height = start_height;
    while (!fAbortRescan && !chain().shutdownRequested()) {
        if (progress_end - progress_begin > 0.0) {
            m_scanning_progress = (progress_current - progress_begin) / (progress_end - progress_begin);
        } else { // avo
            m_scanning_progress = 0;
        }
        if (block_height % 100 == 0 && progress_end - progress_begin > 0.0) {
            ShowProgress(strprintf("%s " + _("Rescanning…").translated, GetDisplayName()), std::max(1, std::min(99, (int)(m_scanning_progress * 100))));
        }
        if (GetTime() >= nNow + 60) {
            nNow = GetTime();
            WaetLogPrintf("Sti rescanning. At block %d. Progress=%f\n", block_height, progress_current);
        }
        // Read 
        CBlock block;
        chain().findBlock(block_hash, FoundBlock().data(block));
        // Find

        bool block_sti_active = false;
