Progress report:
- Version 3.0.5-Debian produces the same result as 3.0.4-Debian.
- the Linux client I wanted is:

$ rpcclient -c 'enumjobs _printername_' -U _username_ _servername_
Password:
0: jobid[5]: _myuser_ Microsoft Word - XXXXXXX.doc  0/0 pages
$

This means XPs use slightly different protocol than rpcclient.
