Thanks for refiling this! I'll see what I can come up with for a fix as soon as I can, probably this coming weekend.

So at a quick look through the code, errors thrown from dequeue() are caught and handled by the retry-or-fail machinery. From what I can tell, the only way for a job to get stuck under these conditions is if it subsequently also throws an error from its error() method. Is it possible that's happening in your case?
