I tried a bit further and got the following:

I bought a new SD card with write protect tab and inserted is as followed:

SD Card, not write protected => Write Protect is on
SD Card, write protected => Write Protect is on
SD Card, not write protected => Write Protect is off
MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off

Reboot Hardy alpha 5

MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off

Reboot Gutsy

MMC Card (the old one) => Write Protect is off

Well. Anything seems fine now. But I don't know why it didn't work and I don't know why it's working now.
For me the bug could be closed; don't know for Kunjan Shah though.
