Arch version bump to replace non-working upstream source with working upstream source.

The link to the source file at "http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/openSUSE:/13.2/standard/src/sgi-bitmap-fonts-1.0-943.1.5.src.rpm" is no longer available.

Arch version bump to remove unneeded rpmextract, remove unneeded return commands, and replace non-working upstream source with working source. The sgi-bitmap-fonts source rpm from SuSE contains the same sgi-fonts.tar file that my earlier PKGBUILDs downloaded from SGI. The SGI site is live but empty.

Why is this extracting the source a second time? makepkg already does it for you.

Thanks to Arch user tuxsavvy for posting about the error. I can reproduce it, but I don't know the cause. I posted on the Arch forums, but have had no response. https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?id=156114 I am uploading Arch version 6 to work around the error by correcting the Makefile with two sed commands. The installation location remains the same as before.

New PKGBUILD: http://pastebin.com/T2GrD8zF In a nutshell $pkgdir/usr/share/fonts/misc does not exist however $pkgdir/fonts/X11/misc does exist and so the line was replaced which fixes the error with building.

Arch version bump to add x86_64 compatibility, thanks to Arch user JokerBoy.
