Just thought I'd update. After lots of digging - and tracing Flash player debug info - it turns out it's a completely different issue (after a fashion). The SWF is loading correctly, but the URL to "https://dev.company1.org/flex2gateway/'" isn't visible externally. So, indeed it couldn't load the gateway config. There was still a sandbox violation occurring because the REMOTE was trying to go to a different server - and that had to be resolved before the true issue hit me on the head - but part of the reason I couldn't get it to work is that both issues threw the exact same error message in the Flash player. It wasn't until I traced it that I noticed something was slightly different with the crossdomain.xml properly set.
This opens a completely different can of worms concerning what's wrong, how to fix it and implications of how some of these apps are/will be deployed. For future reference, if you include "allow-http-request-headers-from" in your crossdomain.xml file, you need to use domain names. If you remove that property (just setting the "allow-access-from"), setting domain="*" works and gives you a good start for troubleshooting..... Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
