Are they supposed to automatically clear ahead of us? Can they clear ahead of us via OLCI or by calling?
ANY elite can clear by calling in right now....if you booked yourself on the same PNR as the companion, you probably won't be flying in F since even a non-elite within 24 hours can do OLCI and they will be offered a paid upgrade. There shouldn't be U space within 24 hours if there is a waitlist so yes, the bug is alive and well.
