I am building a MACHINE = "qemux86" image using Poky v1.7.1 with multilib

When I run BitBake to build a Sato image, Bitbake prompt the following
error.

Parsing of 893 .bb files complete (0 cached, 893 parsed). 2181 targets, 174
skipped, 0 masked, 0 errors. NOTE: Resolving any missing task queue

While the same configurations for multilib was run on Poky Daisy branch,
however we don't hit this problem. From the Reference Manual, I know that
as we migrate to YP version 1.7, eglibc 3.19 has been replaced with glibc
2.20. Could this be the reason of the broken multilib features?

How should I resolve this? How should I exclude the "lib32-glibc" package
from the build? Thanks in advance.
I have reproduced this; it appears uclibc isn't actually being selected
properly for the multilib. I've filed a bug with some details:
