Unless something's changed recently, Ubuntu doesn't have binNMUs in the same way Debian does. Instead, they have "no change" source uploads with rebuilds on all architectures. There have been discussions of introducing binNMUs - see https://bugs.launchpad.net/launchpad/+bug/245594 for example. It wasn't entirely clear to me from the surrounding discussions I found whether the remaining reasons that it hasn't been implemented are technical or simply because no-one's done the work.
