If you add &explainOther=<some id>, see: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/SolrRelevancyFAQ
you might get some hints. You can use the TermsComponent to see if the synonyms are getting in the index, but you'll have to have a very restricted input set (like one doc) for that to be helpful for a specific document. Ahhh, try getting the stand-alone Luke program, it allows a lower-level exploration of the index, see: http://code.google.com/p/luke/ The LukeRequestHandler is based on Luke, but Luke itself is more flexible..... When are you putting synonyms in? Index time? Query time? Both? Showing your schema.xml fragment for the field in question would help diagnose the problem, as would showing the results of attaching &debugQuery=on to the URL.
