I am not sure, if either of these method going to work, if your class is not
compiled in main app...
I think, Scott is more asking about dynamic loading of class/component when
required on runtime....
I think, mx.utils.ClassUtil.findClass("") would only work when class
definition is present in app...
Scott, if you are ok to keep all components in main app, above things going
to work. But it might increase the swf size...If you are sure that all
components are going to be used in application life cycle at some point of
time, then this approach is ok...

Try putting _global in front of your first package, i.e.
var x = _global["com"]["str1"]["str2"]["str3"];
or, if you know the full class path (fully qualified class name) then try
var x = mx.utils.ClassUtil.findClass("com.str1.str2.str3");
