is it enough to change the sources by extracting and copying the tarball over the existing installation, or do i need to run the update.php script? any changes in the database-schema?
It has no database changes. Running update.php is usually not needed for maintenance releases. You can easily verify that the patch doesn't change any sql file.
Why not just run it?

because we're hosting a wikifamily (>20 wikis) an have to copy config / run it >20 times ;-)

Copy config? I don't know how you have designed it, but on most wikifamilies you don't need to move around files to run update.php And for running it 20 times, that's the reason scripts have for loops.
