In this case, it's because you have port packaging turned on.  There's
probably a command line option to ignore existing packages, but you
probably want to delete the current archive anyway.
Theres are stored, by default, under: /opt/local/var/macports/packages/
The one you want to delete is probably located at:
/opt/local/var/macports/packages/darwin/i386/libsdl_image-1.2.10_2+universal.i386.tgz
Delete that, or the correct file if I got the name wrong, and you
should be able to uninstall, clean, and then install a fresh build.

"port clean --archive libsdl_image" will delete any archives
"port clean --all libsdl_image" will delete archives, dist files, builds, etc.
