There is the environment variable "NO_PROXY" that we do support. I'm not
entirely sure how it gets set up. But certainly:

def proxy_bypass(self, host):
    """Check if host should be proxied or not"""
    no_proxy = self.get_proxy_env_var('no', default_to=None)
    if no_proxy is None:
        return False
    hhost, hport = urllib.splitport(host)
    # Does host match any of the domains mentioned in
    # no_proxy ? The rules about what is authorized in no_proxy
    # are fuzzy (to say the least). We try to allow most
    # commonly seen values.
    for domain in no_proxy.split(','):
        dhost, dport = urllib.splitport(domain)
        if hport == dport or dport is None:
            # Protect glob chars
            dhost = dhost.replace(".", r"\.")
            dhost = dhost.replace("*", r".*")
            dhost = dhost.replace("?", r".")
            if re.match(dhost, hhost, re.IGNORECASE):
                return True
    # Nevertheless, there are platform-specific ways to
    # ignore proxies...
    return urllib.proxy_bypass(host)


It may also depend if we are using "pycurl" or "urllib". Can you try
setting "no_proxy" and then using "http+urllib://..." ?
