 Yes, the barbarian is one of the harder races (because I think it has a larger
negative on its int/pow than most races have adjustments for).

 However, a few magical items that give you bonuses to those can offset that a
lot.  Sure, you won't ever be as good as a straight mage, but the point is that
you could still play many aspects of a mage.
