class Com_ExampleInstallerScript
{
...
}Expected result
The aClass is instantiated.
Actual result

Additional comments
It would be nice to load some utility classes for the installer.

In Joomla, JPATH_COMPONENT always point to the folder of the component being executed which is administrator/components/com_installer in this case
To be safe, you can use JPATH_ROOT . '/components/com_yourcom' or JPATH_ADMINISTRATOR . '/components/com_yourcom' instead of JPATH_COMPONENT
For now, this issue can be closed.

Closing as expected behavior. JPATH_COMPONENT is a relative constant and should not be relied on as an absolute path declaration.

It works using the
JLoader::registerNamespace('Example', __DIR__);. It would be nice to use the sameJPATH_COMPONENTconstant in the installer script, if possible.
