I have straight IP in my proxy exception list like "192.168.0.2" without mask specification. The proxy_bypass_macosx_sysconf function verifies each item in this list by regexp r"(\d+(?:\.\d+)*)(/\d+)?" that produces two groups: IP and mask. The mask can be None here (as in my case) and this None case isn't handled, so urllib crashes with "TypeError: 'NoneType' object is unsubscriptable". I couldn't find specification of MacOS proxy exceptions list, so I don't know whether you can use just IP or prefix without mask specification. If you can, here is small patch that adds nesessary check and guesses mask if it is not specified. If you cannot, the last question mark should be removed from regex.
Patchs looks file, although the 'None' branch might be a bit too fancy. I haven't found a spec either, and therefore your code is probably the safest way to deduce a mask.
The strange thing is that in both 2.7 and 3.1 branches there is no such code at all. Inernet Config is used there without mentioning any exceptions despite the fact that ic module is marked as deprecated and proxy bypass is real.
I'm completely lost 2.7 tree in svn. My last post was about 3.1.2 release. As I understand, System Configuration framework is being used since 2.6.5 and 3.2. So, this bug is about all this versions.
