Flat memory model is not an issue here.  The problem is that the code segment
whose selector is loaded into the CS register is marked as executable, and
such segments cannot be written in protected mode.

Btw, DJGPP doesn't use a flat memory model at all.  The details of this were
discussed several months ago here, so you can find them by searching at
