I know there was a problem where a Gerrit Plugin was triggering jobs (unrelated to Gerrit) but as far as I know, that was disabled/removed from the production Hudson system. (Sorry, don't know bug number). Plus, I had a case where "URL Content Change" trigger stopped working right, and those jobs were building over and over again, even though no content change (bug 363891 [1]).
In the past, I've sometimes found it helps "odd Hudson behavior" to "wipe out workspace", essentially resetting what ever is there. To get to that option, click on the job, click on "Workspace" (on left, upper part of page), which displays the workspace, but also reveals a "Wipe out workspace" option. I'm sure it is mostly "superstitious behavior" ... but has seemed to help in some cases. In any case, I'd encourage you see if any existing bugs are related to your observations [2] and if not, to open one [3] being sure to make note "it is on Eclipse Infrastructure".

It always reports (a) Started by SCM change and (b) No changes. But then it triggers a build rather than just exit. I'm polling for SCM changes every 2 hours. That results in 12 unnecessary builds per day ;-( This strange behaviour started yesterday. Does anybody see the same behaviour?
