There was a problem hiding this comment.
Naming: This is not exactly a proxy. "A proxy is an interface to something else" (wikipedia). This class is not an interface.
Maybe _ExceptionInfo or _ExceptionPlaceholder would be a better name.
Also a docstring would be helpful. Maybe:
Suggested change

| class _ExceptionInfo: | |
| """ | |
| A class to carry exception information around. | |
| This is used to store and later raise exceptions. It's an alternative to directly storing | |
| Exception instances and circumvents traceback-related issues. Caching tracebacks | |
| can keep user's objects in local namespaces alive indefinitely. This can lead to very | |
| surprising memory issues for users and will result in incorrect tracebacks. |
You might even add a classmethod from_exception(exc) for convenience.

which then reads raise exc_info.to_exception().
The original solution using with_traceback didn't actually work because with_traceback doesn't return a new exception instance but rather modifies the original one in place, and the traceback will then be attached to it by the raise statement. Instead, we actually need to build a new instance, so reuse the _ExceptionProxy machinery from font_manager (slightly expanded).
