JR53384: Synonym does not work in FEP6 store on FEP8

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Starting in Feature Pack 8, synonym processing may be done using
  REST services using the Search server.  However, existing
  stores may continue to use the synonym processing available from
   the BOD services using the WebSphere Commerce server.  While
  the REST service using the Search server does process synonym
  requests properly, an issue introduced in Feature Pack 8 causes
  the BOD service to process synonyms incorrectly.
