Port archives the package files and then installs from this archive, and 
unfortunately it looks like the archive.


I think this command will show you where this archive is located.
$ port location qt4-mac
/opt/local/var/macports/software/qt4-mac/qt4-mac-4.7.4_1+quartz.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2


Since qt4-mac takes a while to build you may want to look at the archive and 
verify that it is really invalid.
$ du -h 
/opt/local/var/macports/software/qt4-mac/qt4-mac-4.7.4_1+quartz.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2
165M    
/opt/local/var/macports/software/qt4-mac/qt4-mac-4.7.4_1+quartz.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2
$ tar jtvf 
/opt/local/var/macports/software/qt4-mac/qt4-mac-4.7.4_1+quartz.darwin_10.x86_64.tbz2
drwxr-xr-x  0 root   wheel       0 Mar  3 16:27 ./
-rw-r--r--  0 root   wheel      12 Mar  3 16:27 ./+COMMENT
-rw-r--r--  0 root   wheel 1340898 Mar  3 16:28 ./+CONTENTS
-rw-r--r--  0 root   wheel     149 Mar  3 16:27 ./+DESC
...

If you want to remove the file this command should do it:
$ sudo port uninstall qt4-mac
