Doesn't this seem to answer the question? Based on this, it appears you can't combine segs or miles for status. You can book award travel on either AA or US, furthermore you can choose to have segs/miles banked in either AA or US, but you can't expect them to say customer has 24 segs on AA, and 100 on US, therefore they have 124 segs for status earning purposes on the new AA.

No one is arguing that they're going to combine miles while there are two separate programs ("until we integrate"). The question is what will happen when they integrate.
