I don't know if it was a known issue and has been fixed in this release but Gantry creates a new .ini file under the template folder if Joomla installation directory refers to a sub-domain or sub-directory other than a root.
For example:
If I have a sub-domain
sub.domain.com
saving templates parameters at backend creates params_sub.ini and thus changes are not reflected in params.ini. They are saved to params_sub.ini.
Likewise if I have a Joomla installation under a sub-directory
domain.com/sub
saving templates parameters at backend creates params_sub.ini and again changes are not reflected in params.ini.
If Joomla installation is a root installation (ie no sub-domain/directory) changes are reflected to params.ini
