Failure to runhaskell with -package=Cabal on Windows

Summary

On Windows, using the x86_64 build from haskell.org, I get:

C:\Neil\temp>C:\ghc\ghc-8.8.1\bin\runhaskell.exe -package=Cabal HelloWorld.hs
ghc.exe:  | C:\ghc\ghc-8.8.1\lib\Cabal-3.0.0.0\HSCabal-3.0.0.0.o: unknown symbol `.file'
ghc.exe: unable to load package `Cabal-3.0.0.0'

I get that regardless as to whether HelloWorld.hs exists (and is a hello world program) or is missing.

Expected behavior

Something useful, e.g. running the file I pass.

Environment

GHC version used: 8.8.1

Optional:

Operating System: Windows
System Architecture: x86_64

I can reproduce this bug both on my home machine, and on my Appveyor CI (which goes via Stack).
