I heard good things about elasticsearch, behind, it is always Lucene 
like Solr. The abstract search layer can accept as many search engine as 
you wish, you would just have to implement the layer. But today, the 
point is, before doing anything more, the layer should be completly 
working with zebra. I know Jared is doing developpment around Zebra 
refactoring.

(We are not talking about replacing Zebra.)

In BibLibre Solr implementation, we developped a Z39.50 server based on 
Net::Z3950::SimpleServer and Regexp::Grammar.You can have a look here:
