Why do you ask?

In LilyPond, the barring together is performed by the
Span_bar_engraver.  It will only bar together if the staves both have
a bar at the same time.  You'll also have to juggle with the timing-
translator to allow different time signatures at all.  Consider the
snippet below, and see what happers when you uncomment the span-bar
bit.

\layout {
  \context {
    \Score
    \remove "Timing_translator"
    \remove "Default_bar_line_engraver"
  }
  \context {
    \Staff
    \consists "Timing_translator"
    \consists "Default_bar_line_engraver"
  }
  \context {
    \PianoStaff
%    \remove "Span_bar_engraver"
  }
}

\context PianoStaff <<
 \context Staff = md { \time 3/4 c d e c d e c d e c d e }
 \context Staff = mg { \time 4/4 \clef bass c1 c c }
