One main-hand attack, one off-hand attack, barring feats or abilities that allow for more. The rules don't allow more than that, no matter what kinds of weapons you possess. You need to have an actual rule for every attack beyond the first in a full-attack action. The only default rule for multiple weapons is the TWF rules, which is a single additional attack.
Technically, more arms don't help either, as there are no rules for that either.
You'd need a third arm to pick up the feat, so just dip 2 levels into alchemist to grow another one and you're golden.
As far as I can tell, you can get 2 hand weapons, armor spikes, the beard, dwarven boulder helm, and two bladed boots.

The feat doesn't grant the ability to make more attacks. Having the weapon aviable for an attack does not automatically mean you can attack with it in addition to other weapon attacks.
Monsters who are listed with multiple weapons can make attacks with them because the stat block says so, but PCs can't do that, not without a rule option that says so.

Multiweapon Fighting (Combat)
This multi-armed creature is skilled at making attacks with multiple weapons.Prerequisites: Dex 13, three or more hands.
Benefit: Penalties for fighting with multiple weapons are reduced by –2 with the primary hand and by –6 with off hands.
Normal: A creature without this feat takes a –6 penalty on attacks made with its primary hand and a –10 penalty on attacks made with all of its off hands. (It has one primary hand, and all the others are off hands.) See Two-Weapon Fighting in the Pathfinder RPG Core Rulebook.
Special: This feat replaces the Two-Weapon Fighting feat for creatures with more than two arms.
It lets you make multiple attacks as long as you have 3 or more arms, so grab extra arm from alchemist.

What the hell are you talking about? All the feat does is reduce penalties on attack rolls, it doesn't let you do anything. Just like the TWF feat only reduces penalties, and the option to attack with two weapons exists completely independent form whether or not you have the feat.
@Joey Cote: It doesn't actually say so - the monster feats from Horror Adventures explicitly say you need GM permission, but even the Bestiary 6, printed a year later, doesn't say anything like that for its monster feats, only that PCs might not qualify. Of course, a GM can always veto anything.

APPENDIX 5: MONSTER FEATS
Most of the following feats apply specifically to monsters, although some player characters might qualify for them (particularly Craft Construct).
Actually, it doesn't give a blanket permit with veto power from the GM. It says that players might qualify. I read that as requiring GM permit, as he is the one that has the job evaluating if they qualify.
That said, I will allow it if the PC/NPC is a creature that can more than two attacks, but to qualify for 3+ attacks with manufactured weapons and related feats you need to be of the race that gives the multiple attacks.
If you use a polymorph ability you get the natural attacks, not the weapon attacks, so you are limited to two weapon attacks (plus iteratives).

That's not how the game normally uses that word - it's used as a synonym for "meet the requirements". For instance, from the prestige class rules, "consult with your GM before you start to work toward qualifying for a prestige class to make sure that the class is allowed" CRB pg. 374 - here, the game make a clear distinction between qualifying, and what the GM allows.
Of course, this is mostly academical, as any such text would only serve as a "warning, (more) likely (than other feats) to get banned, ask your GM before wasting time theorycrafting with it" sign.
