1.5.x and later versions should offer a PHP view under
Special:Allmessages. You can copy and paste this into the
LanguageXX.php file (backup first) in the right place, then run
rebuildMessages.php.

reinstalling MediaWiki from scratch. Anybody knows another way to do
this?

Mb big, to big maybe or
is this not the right way at all?
Anybody knows how to solve this?
[I don't claim this will work, but its a start]
The system messages (in MW 1.5+) are stored in the "xx_page" table,
and
cached as one blob in "xx_objectcache"
(keyname:
"yourwikiname:messages").
You'll need to extract all the rows for the Mediawiki namespace:
SELECT *
FROM `xx_text`
WHERE `page_namespace` =8
Then you'll need to delete the pages in that namespace from the other
DB,
and insert the exported pages (without having ID clashes).
Now you'll also need to remove the cached object and re-edit your
"Special:Allmessages" page, so the objectcache blob is restored.
And ofcourse before you start, make tested backups.
