1. Create target platform based on Kepler M6 including the delta packs for RCP and SWT.
2. Create RCP application with feature-based product configuration file.
3. Export product configuration using PDE UI.
 a. Do not select "Generate Metadata Repository"
 b. Select "Export for Multiple Platforms"
 c. Choose macosx (x86) and/or (x86_64)
4. Export fails with the following error:
<workspace path>.metadata/.plugins/org.eclipse.pde.core/temp/org.eclipse.pde.container.feature/assemble.org.eclipse.pde.container.feature.macosx.cocoa.x86.xml:97: java.io.FileNotFoundException: cannot find launcher root (Eclipse.app or Launcher.app)
java.io.FileNotFoundException: cannot find launcher root (Eclipse.app or Launcher.app)

Possibly related to bug 344135. As suggested in that bug, if I select "Generate Metadata Repository" it works as expected. Without that, it doesn't work for me whether I export to Directory or Archive file.

Development Environment:
Linux x86_64
Eclipse for RCP/RAP Developers Kepler M6 Linux.gtk.x86_64
