I stumbled across a way to hang a workflow, by creating and running the following script (it'll work fine with the equivalent freestyle job):
node {
git url:'https://github.com/jenkinsci/workflow-plugin.git', branch:'master'
echo 'nope'
sh 'git clean -fdx'
}
The following output is shown in the console:

First time build. Skipping changelog.

The workflow can be aborted manually, but as far as I can tell does not complete (though it hasn't been left overnight, so it might finish eventually).
