This is not under the control of jQuery, and not even a bug. See http://www.whatwg.org/specs/web-apps/current-work/multipage/tokenization.html#consume-a-character-reference for the relevant HTML5 character reference parsing logic:
Consume the maximum number of characters [immediately after the U+0026 AMPERSAND] possible, with the consumed characters matching one of the identifiers in the first column of the named character references table (in a case-sensitive manner).
Note that reg appears in the table, so the first 4 characters of ®by should be consumed and replaced by U+00AE REGISTERED SIGN (®).

If the character reference is being consumed as part of an attribute, and the last character matched is not a U+003B SEMICOLON character (;), and the next character is either a U+003D EQUALS SIGN character (=) or an alphanumeric ASCII character, then, for historical reasons, all the characters that were matched after the U+0026 AMPERSAND character (&) must be unconsumed, and nothing is returned.
So try:
$('#report').html('®=®®by')

The point is, this is not a jQuery bug. If you have issues with the standard, contact the W3C and ask them to change the rules.
or try this:
$('#report').html("®by")
