mb* functions are something that are either there or not, it's not an
extension you can install later on for php.

To get it, you have to recompile php.

http://www.php.net/manual/en/mbstring.installation.php

You can see if it's enabled at all by creating a phpinfo page and
viewing it in your browser and search for 'multibyte'. If it's not
there, you don't have it and you have to recompile php.
