Don't really see how.

Monty takes a shine to I , Withnail tells Monty that I is gay so they can use the cottage.Monty goes there thinking I is gay.

That doesn't sound homophobic to me , Carry on films used this kind of plot all the time with men thinking women liked them & vice versa. I don't see how using it in a gay context makes it homophobic.
