Polling is working properly for this build.  However, because this is a
Pipeline job,
if there is no workspace from a previous build, then polling won't work.  I
complained about this:
https://groups.google.com/d/msg/jenkinsci-users/-TKlj8y4hrk/76iTTK8KEQAJ

but was told "that's how it works".

So, it is necessary to manually kick off a build, and then automatic
polling will work in
subsequent builds, and you don't have to touch it.

I'm not sure why this build was in this state, but I manually kicked off a
build,
and subsequent builds for FreeBSD_HEAD now seem to be polling the SCM
properly and working.
