Stack is using a different version of cabal to install extra-deps packages

Hello,

I am trying to use a custom cabal build for my project. I am trying to use uuagc and uuagc-cabal to pre-process my AG files to generate HS files. But, I am facing some issues with stack and uuagc-cabal.
Looks like stack is installing uuagc-cabal with a different version of cabal in relation to the cabal version that my project is using and the problem is when I try to use uuagc-cabal library in Setup.hs of my project where I have two different versions of cabal. Here is the logs with the error I am seeing:

```
squirrel:hello-uuagc carlos$ stack setup
Fetched package index.
Populated index cache.
Preparing to install GHC to an isolated location.
This will not interfere with any system-level installation.
Downloaded ghc-8.0.1.
Installed GHC.
stack will use a sandboxed GHC it installed
For more information on paths, see 'stack path' and 'stack exec env'
To use this GHC and packages outside of a project, consider using:
stack ghc, stack ghci, stack runghc, or stack exec

I wonder if we have a way to make stack use the same version of cabal for installing extra-deps packages.

The version of stack is:

```
Version 1.3.2, Git revision 3f675146590da4f3edf768b89355f798229da2a5 (4395 commits) x86_64 hpack-0.15.0
```

Here is my stack.yaml

```
# This file was automatically generated by 'stack init'
#
# Some commonly used options have been documented as comments in this file.
# For advanced use and comprehensive documentation of the format, please see:
# http://docs.haskellstack.org/en/stable/yaml_configuration/

# Resolver to choose a 'specific' stackage snapshot or a compiler version.
# A snapshot resolver dictates the compiler version and the set of packages
# to be used for project dependencies. For example:
#
# resolver: lts-3.5
# resolver: nightly-2015-09-21
# resolver: ghc-7.10.2
# resolver: ghcjs-0.1.0_ghc-7.10.2
# resolver:
#  name: custom-snapshot
#  location: "./custom-snapshot.yaml"
resolver: lts-7.15

# User packages to be built.
# Various formats can be used as shown in the example below.
#
# packages:
# - some-directory
# - https://example.com/foo/bar/baz-0.0.2.tar.gz
# - location:
#    git: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack.git
#    commit: e7b331f14bcffb8367cd58fbfc8b40ec7642100a
# - location: https://github.com/commercialhaskell/stack/commit/e7b331f14bcffb8367cd58fbfc8b40ec7642100a
#   extra-dep: true
#  subdirs:
#  - auto-update
#  - wai
#
# A package marked 'extra-dep: true' will only be built if demanded by a
# non-dependency (i.e. a user package), and its test suites and benchmarks
# will not be run. This is useful for tweaking upstream packages.
packages:
- '.'
# Dependency packages to be pulled from upstream that are not in the resolver
# (e.g., acme-missiles-0.3)
extra-deps:
- uuagc-0.9.52.1
- uulib-0.9.22
- uuagc-cabal-1.0.6.0

# Override default flag values for local packages and extra-deps
flags: {}

# Extra package databases containing global packages
extra-package-dbs: []

explicit-setup-deps:
  "*": true

# Control whether we use the GHC we find on the path
# system-ghc: true
#
# Require a specific version of stack, using version ranges
# require-stack-version: -any # Default
# require-stack-version: ">=1.2"
#
# Override the architecture used by stack, especially useful on Windows
# arch: i386
# arch: x86_64
#
# Extra directories used by stack for building
# extra-include-dirs: [/path/to/dir]
# extra-lib-dirs: [/path/to/dir]
#
# Allow a newer minor version of GHC than the snapshot specifies
# compiler-check: newer-minor
```

And here is my cabal file:

```
name:                hello-uuagc
version:             0.1.0.0

  hs-source-dirs:      src
  main-is:             Main.hs
  default-language:    Haskell2010
  build-depends:       base >= 4.7 && < 5,
                       uuagc, uuagc-cabal
```

And here is my Setup.hs file

```
import Distribution.Simple
import Distribution.Simple.UUAGC (uuagcLibUserHook)
import UU.UUAGC (uuagc)

main = defaultMainWithHooks (uuagcLibUserHook uuagc)
```

I would appreciate some help, thx in advance.
