You are mistaken, unless I am ;-)  

Allowing users to list whatever is available, instead of requiring
all users to choose only one, is a deliberate feature in the
arrangement, so it is not unfortunate and it would be breaking
end-user expectation if we gave an error when more than one is
given (and it would be easier to write and maintain autoconf rules
for the feature---we do not want to have two places that makes
decisions on precedence).
