ICU has UCA-based collation that includes tailorings for Hebrew & Arabic.

ICU homepage: http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/
Collation charts: http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/charts/collation/
Locale Explorer with collation demo: http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/demo/
Collation in the User's Guide: http://oss.software.ibm.com/icu/userguide/Collate_Intro.html
Collation implementation design: http://oss.software.ibm.com/cvs/icu/icuhtml/design/collation/ICU_collation_design.htm

Best regards,
markus
