Unable to build a netstandard2.0 project from a net8.0 unit test

[DarkDaskin]

I have a unit test which builds several projects targeting net46 and netstandard2.0. net46 ones build successfully, but netstandard2.0 ones fail with the following error:

C:\Program Files\dotnet\sdk\8.0.315\Sdks\Microsoft.NET.Sdk\targets\Microsoft.NET.Sdk.targets(284,5): error MSB4018: The "GenerateDepsFile" task failed unexpectedly.

The same projects can be built with dotnet build without problems.

I also tried to switch my unit tests to net9.0, but the same error persists (with different assembly version).

I use MSBuildLocator.RegisterDefaults(); to locate an MSBuild instance.

Installing the Microsoft.Extensions.DependencyModel package into the unit test project allows to build everything successfully, but I guess that MSBuildLocator should have loaded this assembly from the SDK directory automatically.
