FWIW, I can confirm that.

git version 2.8.3

My $HOME/.config/git/gitk contains:

set mergecolors {red blue green purple brown "#009090" magenta "#808000" "#009000" "#ff0080" cyan "#b07070" "#70b0f0" "#70f0b0" "#f0b070" "#ff70b0"}

With that file gitk runs without problems.
If I move that file away, gitk stops working over VNC and also forwarded X11 for me.

It runs natively on Windows though.
