Name top-level exceptions as private variables

Hawk777 · Hawk777 · commit 2a0305b349f6 · 2023-05-15T10:13:37.000-07:00
`exc` is private to the module. Naming it `_exc` eliminates a collision
with the `exc` submodule (one which would not be observable at runtime
due to the import failing, but which confuses linters).
