Well, if the job is explicitely isAutoDelete() then I'd say it's a bug in the caller to try to delete it in the first place...

I added a guard to prevent that. An alternative would be to call deleteLater() before emitting the signals but I was afraid it would cause trouble if slots connected to the emitted signals used event loops.
