As package-update just defers to package-install, I don't find this
surprising.  What you want is that package.el always treats a built-in
package as upgradable to a package from ELPA.  It seems like this should
be possible by adjusting the interactive spec of package-install and
modifying package-compute-transaction or even package-built-in-p.
