You can use DISTVERSION=0.4.0-rc1 instead of PORTVERSION.

+ you won't have to redefine DISTNAME, as DISTVERSION is substituded
  there directly
+ legal PORTVERSION will be constructed for you (that'll be 0.4.0.r1),
  and the nicest thing is that 0.4.0.r1 < 0.4.0, thus when you update
  the port to release, you won't need to bump PORTEPOCH.
