AutoPurgeJobs is only used when you have quotas enabled on a
queue.

It should never have done this - the code is specifically written
to remove the oldest completed jobs first, and will *never* remove
a pending/active job. If you have N active/pending jobs and have
MaxJobs set to N as well, then new jobs will be refused until one
or more jobs are completed.
