I'm resurrecting this thread because this change negatively affects our use
of multilib. The use case that this is fixing seems to be a a case that
would be a better fit for multiconfig than it would multilib. My
interpretation of the use cases of multilib and multiconfig is as follows
and someone can correct me if this is wrong.

Multilib allows images to be built that support multiple architectures on
the same image. Specifically this use case is interesting for cases where
some library or tool has to be 32-bit (for whatever reason might apply) but
the rest of the image is 64-bit. For example we have a 32-bit library from
a third party vendor and that vendor won't provide us with a 64-bit
version. So we want the majority of our system to be 64-bit but need
multilib to support the subset of our image that needs to be 32-bit. The
result is that some portion of our image has to be 32-bit but whenever
possible we'd like to be using the 64-bit packages to reduce duplicating
packages between 32 and 64 bit.

Multiconfig allows for multiple configs and seems well suited to cases
where there are separate images for each config. So you could have a 32-bit
image from one config and a 64-bit image from another config. If no image
cross-contamination is required, as seems to be the intent of the request
here, then multiconfig can ensure that while not reducing the usefulness of
allarch. The original scenario seemed to follow this pattern where there is
a lib32-core-image-sato and a core-image-sato.

In our multilib case we want the behavior from before this change. So in
the specific use case of 'lib32-curl -> ca-certificate -> openssl' we
actually want this. The reason behind this being the desired behavior is
that the main architecture would certainly already require openssl so
adding the 32-bit version would cause duplication and therefore increase
our images size unnecessarily. In the past we had actually found that
installing some duplicate things that overlapped like "/usr/bin/openssl"
would cause racey behavior where sometimes we got the 32-bit version and
others we got the 64-bit version.

Additionally the removal of allarch from all multilib builds also seem like
a poor choice as multilib builds now lose all of the benefits that are
generally available from allarch.
