Well, first let's simplify. Try replacing the tag-separators with something unique:
 Templates.Set_Tag_Separators (Start_With => "[[", Stop_With => "]]");
and matching alterations in the translation:
 Put_Line (Templates.Translate ("test '[[foo]]/one/two/three' test", Translations));

See if that helps.
