no, you don't have to write any code in either case:
solr 3.1:
<fieldType name="sort_haw" class="solr.TextField">
<analyzer>
<tokenizer class="solr.KeywordTokenizerFactory"/>
<filter class="solr.ICUCollationKeyFilterFactory" locale="haw"
strength="secondary"/>
</analyzer>
</fieldType>
solr 4.0:
<fieldtype name="sort_haw" class="solr.ICUCollationField" locale="haw"
strength="secondary"/>
then just copyField or whatever to get your data in there.
