May I ask you: if the software is at 1.0.rc2, why the port version is 
set at 0.99.xx?
You might want to make some test on your own, but in my experience using 
a version like 1.0.r2 is supported by the port subsystem. I mean, if you 
label a version as 1.0.r2, the final version 1.0 should be considered 
greater than 1.0.r2 (and so allow users to upgrade automatically).
