It's only recently that the Europeans and USA agreed to have some commonality and interoperability on some of the civilian signals, so we'll need to wait until new GPS receiver-frontends are built or old ones upgraded.

It'll still mean that they can both switchoff or degrade their signals when required and anyway, Galileo & Compass are still quite a few years away from being operational so in the interim we are reliant on GPS and GLONASS.
