[XeTeX] Problem getting ffi ligature

I've been trying to use TeX Gyre Termes as a Times New Roman
substitute in typesetting a book with XeLaTeX (I've finally got the
darned thing to compile after wading through a lot of errors that
weren't a problem under pdflatex). I am having trouble persuading
XeLaTeX to give me the "ffi" ligature. I am certain that it exists
in Termes (at least, it's visible in Font Book). But in its place I
get an ff ligature followed by a regular i, as in the following
minimal example:
\documentclass[11pt]{memoir}
\usepackage{fontspec}
\setmainfont[Mapping=tex-text,Ligatures={Common}]{TeX Gyre Termes}
\begin{document}
\noindent fi fl ff ffi \\
\textit{fi fl ff ffi}
\end{document}
Suggestions for how to fix this would be most welcome. My book makes
constant reference to the "divine oFFIce", so this is important!
