StackSetupShim misses Cabal-syntax dependency for newer GHC versions

[Topsii]

Steps to reproduce

1. Create a new project with stack new sample-project
2. Edit stack.yaml to use a nightly ghc

resolver: nightly-2022-03-03
compiler: ghc-9.3.20220308 
system-ghc: true
packages:
- .

3. Run stack build

Expected

project compiles successfully

Actual

PS C:\Users\Tobias\Documents\Uni\haskell\sample-project> stack build
Stack has not been tested with GHC versions above 9.0, and using 9.3.20220308, this may fail
Stack has not been tested with Cabal versions above 3.4, but version 3.7.0.0 was found, this may fail

C:\sr\setup-exe-src\setup-shim-Z6RU0evB.hs:3:1: error:
    Could not load module ‘Distribution.PackageDescription’
    It is a member of the hidden package ‘Cabal-syntax-3.7.0.0’.
    You can run ‘:set -package Cabal-syntax’ to expose it.
    (Note: this unloads all the modules in the current scope.)
    Use -v (or `:set -v` in ghci) to see a list of the files searched for.

More Information

Issue #5110 is similar and was apparently worked around by adding cabal to the setup-depends field.
More specific to my problem I have found the issue haskell/cabal#7974 where they talk about adding a setup-depends field with Cabal-syntax >= 3.7.
Unfortunately it does not work. The error message remains the same. I tried it by deleting package.yaml and editing stack.yaml and sample-project.cabal as follows:

Possibly related to haskell/cabal#8370 ?

Closing, as I assume this was fixed by 718ee02.
