Humm. This does not look quite right either. In which directory did you
try this?
In my home directory.
I am not convinced this is a wrong outcome for quitting in the middle
of saving.
Here is a summary of what Emacs does in the scenario:
(a) Before saving bar, Emacs renames bar to bar~, overwriting the old
backup in the process, and sets `buffer-backed-up' to t. This is
documented in the manual.
(b) Emacs tries to save bar but fails to do so, because the user quits.
To reduce harm, Emacs renames bar~ back to bar. But -- and this is
probably wrong -- Emacs does not set `buffer-backed-up' back to nil.
What I get is (a) but not (b).
