Not necessarily. If the function is a main function (that is, the direct
result of load) then _ENV is always the first (and only) upvalue and it
is always present. Other functions have _ENV just like any other upvalue.
For instance, consider the following code:
 local a
 function foo ()
 return a + b
 end
In function foo, the first upvalue is 'a' and the second is '_ENV'.
