Comment:

 It's caused by the following: in bp-groups-screens.php function
 groups_screen_group_request_membership() the request is done `if ( isset(
 $_POST['group-request-send']) )`. But the $_POST variable is empty because
 it's a pure link button. I commented out line 471 and 483 (closing of the
 condition) - now it works.
