They only conflict on the default PKGNAME (I think). You just have to
change the PKGNAME-subpackage to something that doesn't.
By default I believe that FULLPKGNAME-subpackage is PKGNAME-subpackage.
For example
$ make show=FULLPKGNAME
foo-4.1.3
$ make show=FULLPKGNAME-perl
foo-4.1.3-perl
and those will conflict
but, set
PKGNAME-perl= p5-foo-${V}
and then you get
$ make show=FULLPKGNAME-perl
p5-foo-4.1.3
and that shouldn't conflict.

Do you mean flavors instead? AFAIK multipackages contain subpackages.
