 I reported this problem here (#22244), but since it is not the exact same
 problem and the ticket in question is over a year old, I thought I should
 create a new ticket.
 Using latest wp-trunk version, TwentyTwelve theme and no plugins
 installed, the following script registration procedure fails to load
 jQuery in the footer:
 {{{
 function tgi_jquery_in_footer_test() {
     wp_register_script('tgi-jquery-js', "//some-uri/name.js",
 array("jquery"), "0.1", true);
     wp_enqueue_script('tgi-jquery-js');
 }
 add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'tgi_jquery_in_footer_test');
 }}}

 Even re-registering jquery with the same options and in_footer param set
 to true doesn't seem to cut it:
 {{{
 function tgi_jquery_in_footer_test() {
     wp_deregister_script("jquery");
     wp_register_script("jquery", false, array("jquery-core", "jquery-
 migrate"), "1.11", true);
     wp_register_script('tgi-jquery-js', "//some/uri/name.js",
 array("jquery"), "0.1", true);
     wp_enqueue_script('tgi-jquery-js');
 }
 add_action('wp_enqueue_scripts', 'tgi_jquery_in_footer_test');
 }}}
 Could anyone try to replicate this?
