Sorry for the not-so-minimal example with the obvious errors around the 
setup. Here is a stripped version that shows the problem:

    % macros=mkvi

    \let\EndTranslation\relax

    % The following should work, but fails with current beta
    \starttexdefinition Trans #TRANSLATION\EndTranslation
       #TRANSLATION
    \stoptexdefinition

    % This version works with both TexLive and current standalone beta
    \def\Translation#TRANSLATION\EndTranslation%
    {#TRANSLATION%
    }

    \starttext

    Translation using \tex{def}{\tex{doTranslation}} works both with
    TL2013 and current beta.

    \Translation
       It betrays a slow-witted mentality to pursue the streams, but not
    to see the sources of things.
    \EndTranslation

    \blank

    Translation using \tex{starttexdef doTrans} fails with current beta.

    \Trans
       It betrays a slow-witted mentality to pursue the streams, but not
    to see the sources of things.
    \EndTranslation

    \stoptext
