4.19.9 and 4.19.12 both state something about the second or last foul, respectfully, occurring before the clock is started following the first and at least one of the attributes of a double/multiple foul is present.
Now, I thought that according to 4.19.1Note there couldn't be a foul after the ball was dead unless it was ruled flagrant or intentional (if not committed by the airborne shooter)

Just to add (to the confusion) -- you can also have two personal fouls that meet this definition. A1 is fouled by B1 (before the bonus). During the throw-in (the ball is now live, but the clock hasn't started), A2 fouls B2.
No one (well, except some on this forum) thinks of this as being a "false double foul" -- they just think of it as being "two fouls" (and, "damn, this game is taking a long time to finish.")
