Hi Richard,
  This is not an issue. do_gcc_multilib_setup() is always configuring the gcc multilib files. For cross gcc recipes it is only using DEFAULTTUNE while for target it is using DEFAULTTUNE & MULTILIB_VARIENTS. Also in my testing cross gcc recipes did not have any such issues.

Thanks,
Nitin
