The following files are licensed under GPL-3.0+ which makes openscad license GPL-3.0+:

src/CGAL_Nef3_workaround.h
src/CGAL_workaround_Mark_bounded_volumes.h
src/convex_hull_3_bugfix.h

Is this intended?

That makes the resulting binary GPL3, it does not change the license of the OpenSCAD source files.

Yes and that's my question. Is this intended? Because this effectively makes it GPL-3.0+ software (I am just asking from a license clarification perspective).

It's a fact and not changeable as long as CGAL is used as geometry kernel.
