I'll just add, as others have suggested, an SCM trigger in B doesn't
quite do what we need it to do, because our build environment mucks
with configuration in the system, not just a Jenkins build workspace.
What we need is a timely, stateful trigger on B that responds to A
when it finds A successfully completed.
