Hello @Ian-Foote. Looks like it’s PyPy 7.3.8 issue, the same ticket was created in the PyPy repository as I can see. When you specify PyPy version in the format pypy-<python_version>, setup-python will use the latest PyPy for specified Python version (this is PyPy 7.3.8 in case of Python 3.7). As a workaround, we can suggest you to use the full format to specify PyPy version and point to previous version, such as 7.3.7:

- uses: actions/setup-python@v2
  with:
    python-version: 'pypy-3.7-v7.3.7'
