Comment:

 With the following code, I am able to load jQuery in the footer using both
 Twenty Twelve and Twenty Fourteen.

 {{{
 function enqueue_my_scripts() {
         wp_deregister_script( 'jquery' );
         wp_register_script( 'jquery', '/wp-includes/js/jquery/jquery.js',
 array(), '1.11.0', true );
         wp_enqueue_script( 'my-script', '/wp-content/plugins/my-script-
 plugin/script.js', array( 'jquery' ), false, true );
 }
 add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'enqueue_my_scripts' );
 }}}

 Core's registration of jQuery must explicitly be unregistered. The new
 registration of jQuery must explicitly tell it to load in the footer.

 I'm going to close this ticket out. Please feel free to reopen if a
 different result is found or expected.
