You don't give any version information and sample data, so I can 
only offer suggestions.

1) There was a stacked histogram color fix in 4.6.1,
   so if you are using 4.6.0 maybe that would take care of it.

2) Related to the bug mentioned in (1), it may help to start with
   a "newhistogram" command that specifies the first line type/style
   to be used.   Specify "0" so that it corrects for the offset of
   one color that you describe.
     plot newhistogram lt 0, \
     "deletions.stat" using 2 title col,\
     for [i=3:39] "" using i title col,\
     "" using 40:key(1) title col

3) "set style increment user" is deprecated in version 4.6,
   so it hasn't seen much testing.
   You might try instead:

   set linetype 1 linecolor rgb "dark-green"
   set linetype 2 linecolor rgb "green"
   ...
   set linetype N linecolor rgb "whatever"
   set linetype cycle N

If that doesn't help, please file a bug report on SourceForge
and include full version information and a copy of a script
and data file so that the problem can be reproduced and fixed.
