Seconded - I definitely found using <check type="uninstall"> was 
unreliable, but ever since I switched to a similar <check type="file"> 
to what Kris suggested my wpkg has behaved well ever since. The comment 
I left in my xml was...

<!-- NB the check of type 'uninstall' seems to be unreliable: it 
temporarily reports an old version for some reason just after the msi 
finishes. The 'file' check seems a lot more reliable. -->
