Ah, I misunderstood your intentions.  I thought that you were expecting
the user to manually set DEB_VERSION_UPSTREAM in their rules file.  Are
you expecting them to use either /usr/share/dpkg/pkg-info.mk or CDBS to
do it?  If so, dh_elpa should probably check both DEB_VERSION_UPSTREAM
and DEB_UPSTREAM_VERSION, using whichever one is set, or signal an
error if both are set and they are different.  Does that sound right?
