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.
