I was hoping that Junio would patch-monkey that one since that
crash-at-launch makes gitk unusable for Mojave users, but apparently
it never got picked up.

Anyhow, the issue fixed by that patch has to do with 'osascript' on
Apple, and it's the only such invocation in the source code of
gitk/git-gui. The 'osascript' invocation merely attempts to foreground
the application at launch, so is almost certainly unrelated to the
above reported behavior. Somebody running Mojave will likely need to
spend some time debugging it. (Unfortunately, I'm a couple major
releases behind and don't plan on upgrading.)
