[FIX] High android build times

Android takes a long time to build on arch based systems.
It seems to be an issue with the latest make (> 3.82) package.

Simply downgrade make to 3.81 and build times will go down.

wget http://packages.bbqlinux.org/bbqlinux/os/x86_64/make-3.81-5-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz
wget http://packages.bbqlinux.org/bbqlinux/os/x86_64/make-3.81-5-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz.sig
sudo pacman -U make-3.81-5-x86_64.pkg.tar.xz

After that, edit your /etc/pacman.conf and add make to IgnorePkg to prevent pacman from updating it again:

IgnorePkg=make

That's all!
