Provided the replaygain tags are calculated AFTER the mp3gain processing has been done, there shouldn't be a problem. Mp3gain uses the replaygain algorithm to calculate the adjustments it makes, so in principle after mp3gain has been applied, any subsequently calculated replaygain tags should be close to 0db. (That said, mp3gain only works in 1.5dB steps, so there will still be some minor residual adjustments).
And finally, a comment about mp3gain. Many posts on this thread have stated that mp3gain changes the actual audio data. It doesn't. What it does do is amend the playback level header on every mp3 frame - this is the thing that tells the mp3 decoder what level to set the output of the frame. Mp3gain also (optionally) adds undo tags that it can use to reset the playback level headers on the mp3 frames back to their original values.
