No there won't be any problems. You won't be able to use some of the new GPO settings which Windows 7 supports as your domain doesn't know about them, but there won't be any issues with the existing settings. Windows 7 will know what to do with them.

I won’t be able to tell you for certain, until some time after it releases, but if the GPO works for Vista, it should also work for Windows 7

Here’s a bit on what’s new with Windows 7 group policy you may want to check out.
