Perhaps interesting, ~~# 4661~~ #9583 refactors cabal path, and I think it fixes this particular error as well.

EDIT: I linked the wrong number

Oh yeah, that's just a copy/paste error. Is it worth fixing if #9583 rewrites the command entirely?

We can hold off any activity here until #9583 lands, I'd say. I linked the latter as fixing this issue here.
