Comment (by trommler):

 I tried the test program on openSUSE 12.3:
 {{{
 environ = 0x601060
 dlsym(deflt, "environ") = 0x601060
 dlsym("libgmp", "environ") = 0x601060
 dlsym("libpthread", "environ") = 0x601060
 }}}
 Here is my libgmp:
 {{{
 ls /usr/lib64/libgmp.so*
 /usr/lib64/libgmp.so  /usr/lib64/libgmp.so.10  /usr/lib64/libgmp.so.10.0.5
 }}}
