Hi, Hm, never had to handle Icelandic and a quick Google search didn't locate a ready to use solution..... which doesn't mean there isn't one. Maybe BasisTech has one?
As for synonyms - that's the same for every language: http://wiki.apache.org/solr/AnalyzersTokenizersTokenFilters#solr.SynonymFilterFactory And the same for stopwords - you just need to have a list of stopwords (or generate them from the index by looking for high frequency terms).
