...to a real fix, but if a head gasket problem is minor, Bar's Leaks will likely fix it. I can't see where this can get you into trouble, as if it gets worse to a point the BL can't seal it, you'll realize it and take measures to replace the gasket.
I am not sure about the possibility of a catastrophic failure while allowing BL to seal a minor leak, but I would imagine it would be no worse than such an event occurring in scenario where there was no previous indication of a leak. If it happens, it happens.
Anyway, the makers of BL claim that it is an effect fix for minor head gasket leaks. I have no reason to doubt this considering the 40 or 50 year history of this product.
