I believe the OpenType version of ITC Garamond is based on the Type 1 MM version, not the plain Type 1 version.

Adobe does NOT make any promises of compatibility between Type 1 and OpenType versions of fonts, but we do document many of the kinds of things that they have changed. However, I don't think this particular issue is in there, and it should be. Sorry about that.
