Sorry, no, this isn't right either :(

If we read the patch where multilib_scripts were introduced:

http://git.yoctoproject.org/cgit.cgi/poky/commit/?id=e3497cc22b969e02efa54e4e54e087dbb91d8ced

it says "standardisation amongst the multilibs on how the alternatives
are named and prioritiesd. The priotitisation code needs to be added
but this change means there is somewhere to add it."

so the intent was to allow the user to define which multilib should be
the higher priority and add in some prioritisation code.

The correct way to fix these warning is to add such code, allowing the
user to specify the order of priorities of the multilibs.

Cheers,

Richard
