Well, my philosophy is always that there IS an
explanation even if we don't know what it is.
Consider the possibility that while you can not pass
the barrier without the Dark Mark, you can pass through
if you are in physical contact with someone who has
the Dark Mark.
In other words, it is possible to be /escorted/ through
the barrier.
When Greyback reaches Malfoy Manor, it is possible that
he simply doesn't know how the Gate works. It is only
Harry's speculation as to how and why Greyback can't
get in. I think this is referred to as 'unreliable
narrator'; we can't always take Harry's thoughts and
opinions as absolute fact.
Again, while I don't know what the explanation is,
I am confident there is one.
