I - as probably you too - are permanently logged in to SourceForge.
and then this doesn't happen.

log out (or use a different browser as I did), and you will see the [report
bugs] button grayed out with a hovering message "To create a new ticket, you 
must be authorized by the project admin."

of course this may mean that anonymous users are not authorized, but registered
SourceForge users are, not only 'project admin allowed' users.

there might be a setting

allow user comments for

   anonymous/everybody
   known sourceforge users
   only to admin approved users

and the default being "known sourceforge users"
