Ubuntu 12.04 has an earlier implementation of multiarch where it uses the --foreign-architecture options that you see in /etc/dpkg/dpkg.cfg.d/multiarch. Newer versions of ubuntu have the latest multiarch implementation where dpkg --add-architecture is supported.

This is not a bug. I don't know what you expect. In any case, the new multiarch implementation won't be deployed to LTS 12.04 at this point.
