They put it in during the first or second update of 14.04LTS. I'm fairly 
certain it's in 14.04.1LTS.

Subject: RE: [E1000-devel] error while compiling ixgbe

To be clear here, compile issues were not fixed until Canonical put in the 
version number in to the Ubuntu releases which was either 15.04 or 15.10.  
Before that we were not able to programmatically determine what kernel the 
driver was being compiled for and so we were not able to fix the compile 
issues.  

As Todd said though if you are going to update the driver you should move to 
the latest version.

Thanks.

Cheers,
John
