Ok, I think I see it now. Pipeline builds are WorkflowJob not AbstractProject, which is why it never reaches the line that schedules the next build.
And, I think I found a viable workaround. At the end of my pipeline script, use the http request plugin to issue a request to <my-jenkins-server>/git/notifyCommit?url=<my-repo>, triggering a poll which will start another execution of the job if it finds changes to build. Thanks for the help.
