Passing string define from a runner fails

[Lockedloop]

I am running cocotb-1.8.0 and trying to create a string macro via runner.
E.g. I want to achieve define MACRO_NAME "some-string" using runners and Questa simulator.
Adding an entry in the defines dictionary defines["MACRO_NAME"] = "some_string" results in "+define+MACRO_NAME=some_string".
I also tried defines["MACRO_NAME"] = "\"some_string\"" , resulting in "+define+MACRO_NAME=\"some_string"", but the simulation fails with the error message

 (vlog-7300) Actual expression for parameter 'MACRO_NAME' in module instance 'my_module' must be constant.

Everything works fine for integer parameters, so it seems to me it is an issue of the "stringification" in the Questa simulator function in runner.py.

Thank you!

Addressed by #3391.

I see, it seems to be the same problem. Closing this issue and keeping an eye out at #3391 for a solution. Thanks!
