The answer is that you can transfer a PLT file between machines, but to 
get any benefits the two machines have to have identical configurations.

Dialyzer checks the consistency of the information in the PLT against 
the files that were used to create the PLT. If this information is not 
up-to-date, the PLT needs to be rebuilt. To perform this check, these 
files have to be in exactly the same place in both machines (they have 
to have the same filenames) and have the same checksums.
