As Andreas wrote at [1] too, that option does not have to be disabled
for TNC or mutual EAP to work.  In fact, the ikev2/rw-eap-ttls-only
scenario mentioned by Martin completes just fine without disabling
multiple authentication rounds.  If you have proof otherwise, please
extend the bug report you opened.

Tobias
