Should each user be allowed to access each others files without some type of permission? My answer would be no. In this case, there are two different OS's installed, but the there should still be the same level of security. If User XP did not grant User Vista permission to access the files, then User Vista should not be allowed to freely or legally access those files.
But again, I don't really know what the issue is. I recommended dual-booting because the XP is already installed on the older HD and from there he can either copy the files or share the folders. Plus if something happens to Vista, he'll still have access to XP.
