Stacktrace of exception

After upgrading to Eclipse Photon RC3 the Eclipse Marketplace does not open anymore when I try to launch it from the Help menu. I found that this is due to the following exception:

org.eclipse.e4.core.di.InjectionException: java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Illegal character in path at index 38: file:/Users/mpaus/Applications/Eclipse Photon RC3.app/Contents/Eclipse/configuration/

(See the full stacktrace in the attachment.)

The reason for the exception is that I have the habbit to rename the Eclipse application in order to distinguish different versions. In this case I renamed it to "Eclipse Photon RC3.app" and the two blank characters is what the marketplace launcher now stumbles over. If I remember it correctly this worked until recently. The previous version was named "Eclipse Photon RC2.app"

If it should matter, my Eclipse is run with Oracle Java 10.
