This is a change introduced with MacPorts 1.8.0,
as previously it would overwrite the old archive:

     - When archive mode is enabled, ports will no longer be rebuilt  
if an
       archive is available. (#10785, jmr in r50416)

So yeah, you will have to clean it manually -
there is no "force" or "rearchive" option yet.
