Tested, the setting I had for APT now works OK with cupt as well:

    Acquire::http::Proxy::bugs.debian.org "DIRECT";

To make things even more clear, you'll probably want to apply the
attached patch, that adds a missing ">" in cupt_vs_apt(5). The lack of
it initially confused me; as I wrote in my original report, I tried
this setting (notice the superfluous "<", caused by the syntax error
in cupt_vs_apt(5)):

>>   acquire::http::<bugs.debian.org::proxy "";
