I would have said that what you are describing is typical for AWD, but I am fairly new to driving one. The way I understand it, with AWD the fronts have both lateral (cornering) and directional loads (braking/accel), just like the rears, so four wheel drift is the default, and very hard to break out the rear. With RWD you can overload the rears by accelerating, to get oversteer; with AWD accel is balanced out, and the main imbalance is when braking overloads the fronts, giving push. To me it is a noticeably different dynamic vs. FWD or RWD, but one that I am really liking a lot (for sporting road driving, have not tracked it yet). Some say a square setup will increase oversteer, but I'm skeptical unless you are really at the limits and overheating the rear tires.
