Yeah. Sadly, this is a really irritating bug, becuase it means that you 
cannot do

	gitk -50

to see some random collection of 50 recent commits.

(And yes, I've wanted to do that - I know the commit is fairly recent, so 
rather than write "gitk @{1.hour.ag}..", I'd rather just be lazy and say 
"gitk -100" to get a smaller slider bar and easier to find the recent 
ones).

I never cared enough to fix it, but it's a mis-feature. I agree that it's 
probably not entirely trivial to fix.
