Check out `gnus-server-mode' - gnus-srvr.el, which
I have as

    /usr/share/emacs/24.4/lisp/gnus/gnus-srvr.el

line 263:

    (set (make-local-variable 'font-lock-defaults) ; ...

All three solutions are equally bad in that all rely
on the hook.

The best solution would be to change
`gnus-browse-mode' to do what gnus-server-mode does so
`font-lock-defaults' is set and one only has to bother
with the colors in an ordinary init file and can drop
the hook.
