What's the code for this? It could be a Component level routing:
VirtualHost host = component.getDefaultHost();
host.attach("/a", new DynRedirector(... args ...));
or an Application level routing:
host.attach("/a", new MyApplication());
...
// In MyApplication.createInboundRoot:
router.attachDefault(new DynRedirector(... args ...));
If it doesn't fall into one of these two camps, it's a good bet that your
problem lies there.

I would have said that you want all requests for resources at URIs with a
prefix of http://foo:port/a to be handled by an instance of DynRedirector.

Again, if DynRedirector.getTargetRef isn't being called at all, then the
template argument passed to DynRedirector isn't being used, so "handled by
the {rr} part" doesn't mean anything.
I think you're confusing the path provided to attach, which can be a
template pattern, with the template pattern passed to the Redirector. The
former is used during routing, the latter is made available to getTargetRef
to be used in determining a target reference from values in the current
request and response.
