Ok, the thing you downloaded from the SDL website is a .dmg file, which is a Mac OS disk image.  When opened it reveals a "framework" -- a directory meant to be moved into /Library/Frameworks where the Mac version of the compiler knows how to find it -- the -F switch points to the framework if I remember right, and headers and libraries are then found there.

There is an "SDL" file which is a shared library.  It appears that shared libraries within frameworks don't have an extension, nor a "lib" prefix, but "file" reveals it as a shared library file.

You could tweak the makefile to use the framework, or build libSDL Unix style, at which point you may still need some (smaller) Makefile tweaks.
