What would cause a Linux server, in this case a Citrix XenServer host, to return "syntax error near unexpected token" for almost every command?
So far I have tried a few key OS commands but to no avail. TOP returns "syntax error near unexpected token" whereas FREE returns "cannot execute binary file".
I have also run some XenServer-related commands and snapshots won't run due to "the VDI is not available".
Would a reboot fix this problem?

Did you try a command built in in your shell? Do you have this problem from console too? If you specify a full path in the command invocation does it happens too? It seems that there is some function or script launched and non correctly formatted a
