The warp syncing process can fail for various reasons, and currently we just try again. This is a poor idea because all these reasons are "deterministic", in the sense that trying again will always lead to the same error.
What to do in that situation isn't obvious, but I think that the least we can do is print a proper error and stop trying.

This isn't actually totally true.
For example, the runtime missing the function that we want to call is a pretty terrific/irrecoverable problem, but it could also be caused by a mistake in the runtime, and it could be that in the future this mistake gets corrected on the chain.
In other words, continuing to sync could in principle lead to a recovery.
I think that the behavior of trying again is correct, but we should probably add a delay (in number of blocks) between the syncing attempts.
Additionally, we should probably indicate through logs if this happens (cc #2222).
