I may have stumbled upon the root cause.
pkg does not consider a package upgradeable if the old version of the
package still exists in the remote repository.

To reproduce:
- Bump a portrevision for a port
- Build it on your repository
- Run pkg repo on the repository
- Run pkg upgrade on the client machine

You will see "1 package updated", but pkg will not proceed to update it.
I don't know if poudriere cleans out stale versions, so it may not apply
to this after all.
