Ah, I missed the crucial part - "on CD" - above.
Nevertheless: I just inserted a Lucid beta CD and see the following

$ mount | fgrep Ubuntu
/dev/sr0 on /media/Ubuntu 10.04 amd64 type iso9660
(ro,nosuid,nodev,uhelper=udisks,uid=1000,gid=1000,iocharset=utf8,mode=0400,dmode=0500)

$ ls -l /media/Ubuntu\ 10.04\ amd64/

cdromupgrade is marked executable and double-clicking it in Nautilus
makes it show the dialogue which asks whether I want to show or execute
the file.

Maybe your CD file-system is just missing the Rock Ridge extensions.
OTOH, if I mount the Lucid CD with the "norock" option, I see all files
marked executable by default. So maybe the important question is: how is
your CD mounted?
