Oops, since ld.bfd 2.24 but the flag came from NetBSD.

Probably. Firefox uses --ignore-unresolved-symbol (ld.bfd 2.26+ or ld.gold
2.28+) or --warn-unresolved-symbol to allow environ(7) in shared libraries
together with --no-undefined. This is a workaround for BSD libc, GNU libc is
unaffected.

$ cat a.c
#include 

void foo() {
  extern char **environ;
  for(int i = 0; environ[i] != NULL; i++)
printf("%s\n", environ[i]);
}

$ cc -fPIC -shared -Wl,-z,defs -o a.so a.c -B/usr/local/bin
-Wl,--ignore-unresolved-symbol,environ
$ cc -fPIC -shared -Wl,-z,defs -o a.so a.c -Wl,--warn-unresolved-symbols
/tmp/a-52cbc1.o: In function `foo':
a.c:(.text+0x12): warning: undefined reference to `environ'
a.c:(.text+0x32): warning: undefined reference to `environ'
