xyouts works exactly the same with !P.MULTI set as it does without
it. For instance:

!P.MULTI = [0,1,2]
plot,[0,1],[0,1]
xyouts,.05,.9,'a line'
plot,[5,10],[5,10]
xyouts,5.1,9,'another line'

That should make two plots with a line of text in each. You do have
to make sure that the xyouts call comes after the plot you want it on,
and before any others. Otherwise it will output to the wrong plot.
I'm not sure why what you're trying isn't working. Maybe I've
misunderstood your problem? Can you give some example code that isn't
cooperating?
