I tested again and both differential and incremental jobs are always 
pruned correctly according to retention periods, but not full jobs. I 
tried winding the system clock forwards a couple of years just in case, 
but it made no difference. It seems like this is a bug, the 
documentation doesn't mention any special case about pruning/retention 
of full jobs.

Regards,
Phil
