When the automatic upgrade helper does a recipe upgrade it should ensure it does a build of the existing version first and then the new version so that it can look at the buildhistory output. I asked for this functionality to be added earlier, and some code was added but it looks like it was never completed; it doesn't appear to be called anywhere from what I can see.
