Working fine here:

# lvcreate -L 10M -pr -s -n l0-snap /dev/vg0/l0
  Rounding up size to full physical extent 12.00 MB
  Logical volume "l0-snap" created

# mount -oro /dev/vg0/l0-snap /mnt/snap

# umount  /mnt/snap

# mount /dev/vg0/l0-snap /mnt/snap
mount: block device /dev/vg0/l0-snap is write-protected, mounting read-only

# lvm version
  LVM version:     2.02.21-RHEL4 (2007-03-26)
  Library version: 1.02.17-RHEL4 (2007-02-02)
