In my opinion, you should compile yourself your bootloader code in order to have complete control over it and over interoperability between it and the application;

Anyway, a starting point to avoid incompatibilities is to be sure that the same SDK version is used for bootloader and application code (some sources are shared between them);

You have to pay attention to these 2 files: "bootloader_util_gcc.c" and "dfu_app_handler.c" in order that application can interoperate safely with the bootloader;

On the linker scripts side, for GCC environment you don't need any changes to the file you posted; eventually the only parameter you could change is the length of the FLASH region, accomodating it in base on the flash space required by the bootloader (the region reserved to the bootloader code is specified in the relative linker scripts files of the bootloader)
