Since the word "JobQueue" doesn't appear in that log even once, it
doesn't seem like you ran "mythjobqueue -v all" or even
"mythjobqueue -v jobqueue".  What command are you running 

The JobQueue will print out a bunch of messages like this ever time it
wakes up and runs through the queue:

2006-10-23 23:02:00.643 JobQueue: GetJobsInQueue: findJobs search bitmask 4, found 22 total jobs
2006-10-23 23:02:00.645 JobQueue: GetJobsInQueue: Ignore 'Archive to /taz/video2/mythtv/recordings' Job for 1027 @ 20061019030000 in Finished state.
2006-10-23 23:02:00.649 JobQueue: GetJobsInQueue: Ignore 'Flag Commercials' Job for 1030 @ 20061020190000 in Finished state.
2006-10-23 23:02:00.650 JobQueue: GetJobsInQueue: Ignore 'Flag Commercials' Job for 1027 @ 20061020193000 in Finished state.

Did you by chance run configure with the "--enable-valgrind" option?
That will disable the jobqueue thread although I can't remember why.
