Even within the context of the comic itself, the Killing Joke is implied to be only a possible backstory of the Joker. The Dark Knight had a good nod to a bit of Joker lore--he constantly remakes his own backstory tailored to the audience he's addressing. And he may honestly remember it being one way and then another on any given day. He's not just insane, he's chaotically insane, and his mind constantly rearranges itself. So there was something like, "If I've got to have a past I prefer it to be multiple choice."

The only thing that is set in stone is at some point, probably pursued by Batman and while wearing the Red Hood, he fell in a vat of chemicals.
