You'd think so, wouldn't you? You should both have each-other's

discard going on.
As far as I know, baked textures are only held as temporary textures
on the sim, so they won't be available in the new region after a
teleport until the client uploads them on arrival.
However, if your client has baked textures cached for another avatar
from the previous region ideally it should continue using those until
it is able to obtain fresh ones from the new region, rather than
clouding the avatar. That would give a more seamless experience than
what appears to happen now.
The only minor "issue" I can see with that at first inspection, is if
the other person changes clothes before following you, in which case
their appearance to you would be out of date until their new baked
textures are available.
Aimee.
Shouldn't the servers share this info between them?
I don't recall ever seeing this problem with a companion walking or
flying across a sim border.
