Is 4♦ the correct system bid here, or should North bid 3♠ to show shortness? I probably won't be able to bring 3NT home, but it has a play while 5♦ is stillborn.

3♠ is the correct system bid on the North cards in an uncontested auction. Perhaps the 3♠ bid means something else in a contested auction.

3♠ would mean the same, but it asks for 9+HCP ( and not bare A/K in the shortness ), based on certain GF.
Note taken, to be addressed if 8HCP is still good enough to be used with 0-1 cards.
