I can not reproduce this problem against the upstream chmod,
the scenario you mentioned is simulated as following,
address@hidden:~$ mount
......
...
/dev/sda8 on /ocfs2 type ocfs2 (ro,heartbeat=none)
/dev/scd0 on /media/cdrom0 type udf (ro,nosuid,nodev,utf8,user=jeff)
address@hidden:~$ sudo touch /ocfs2/b
touch: cannot touch `/ocfs2/b': Read-only file system
address@hidden:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 /ocfs2
chmod: changing permissions of `/ocfs2': Read-only file system
chmod: changing permissions of `/ocfs2/lost+found': Read-only file system
chmod: changing permissions of `/ocfs2/a': Read-only file system
address@hidden:~$ sudo chmod -R 777 /media/
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0': Read-only file system
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0/18.mov': Read-only file system
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0/Masseuse.mp4': Read-only file
system
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0/Miindo2008.mkv': Read-only file
system
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0/SetupX64.avi': Read-only file
system
chmod: changing permissions of `/media/cdrom0/WDK_6001_18001.iso': Read-only
file system
could you supply more info?
