The issue is configure.ac itself has a logic so you can enable/disable multiarch with
a configure option. This is done using the --with-cpu value and if it does not find
a multiarch for specified cpu it won't use multiarch for following implies search.
By hardcoding in the Implies files I basically saying it will use multiarch regardless
of the configure option.
