1) does it cause any problems?


no



2) is the appropriate workaround to...

cd /usr/lib64
ln -s preloadable_libintl.so libgnuintl.so.8



no, don't do anything, portage does it for you
ignore the warning

err, sorry confused this with another. this warning is really a bug in 
portage, the preloadable library doesn't need to be called as per SONAME 
due to the way it's used in apps
