The Debian package (upon which Ubuntu's is based) hasn't had mdb added to the configuration system yet, but the module is installed and can be used.
However, If you simply installed Ubuntu 14.04 and ran "apt-get install slapd", you probably don't have 2.4.39, but actually 2.4.31 plus some patches. Confirm that using "dpkg-query --list slapd" or "apt-cache policy slapd". That version lacks fixes for some known mdb bugs (e.g. Debian bug #722090), so if you want to use mdb you should upgrade to a later version, either building from source yourself, or using the deb packages provided by ltb-project.org or by Symas.
