It's due to this code in dabbrev.el:

(defun dabbrev-expand (arg)
   ...
        ;; If the user inserts a space after expanding
        ;; and then asks to expand again, always fetch the next word.
        (if (and (eq (preceding-char) ?\s)
                 (markerp dabbrev--last-abbrev-location)
                 (marker-position dabbrev--last-abbrev-location)
                 (= (point) (1+ dabbrev--last-abbrev-location)))
            (progn
              ;; The "abbrev" to expand is just the space.
              (setq abbrev " ")
              ...

This triggers on the second M-/ in your recipe above, which causes the
third M-/ to expand " " instead of "str ".  Not sure what to do about it
though.  Removing this `if' will fix your case, but probably break
others.
