My assumption is that when SGE is down, qstat returns the error messages ("error: commlib error: can't connect to service (Connection refused)", etc.) as plain text which can't be parsed as XML which in return causes qjobtest to barf. In short: This is another artefact of SGE being down at that moment, you can't do anything about it, just ignore.
