Upgrade slf4j to the latest 1.6.x (1.6.6). We are currently using 1.6.1 which is needed by Solr but Avro already requires 1.6.4.
Sure
Upgrade Tika to 1.4: AFAICS, it's only used by Hibernate Search directly, not by its dependencies. It's usually a good idea to upgrade Tika as there are often a lot of fixes on the filters. It might be a good idea to create a specific issue for this one to have it in the changelog?
Done
Upgrade all the test dependencies.
Always welcome, if it works 
Upgrade Avro to 1.7.3? Looks like the upgrade is painless. I don't have any compilation error. But maybe it's still in 1.6 to be consistent with other components of the JBoss stack? This one is probably more 5.0 material as it touches the clustering part which is probably harder to test.
Upgraded to 1.7.5
