Not only is it 100% normal, (and not a "problem") but I think it even has a warning label on the back of the gas door that says to remove the cap slowly to allow the pressure to release. In fact, if that pressure didn't build up, you'd notice by getting crappy mileage (not sure why, but it's true) and could even have weird issues like a CEL (on newer cars at least)
