Do you mean 64-bit Intel (x86_64) or just any 64-bit architectures?

GCC 3.1 added support for x86_64, 64-bit UltraSPARC, and 64-bit SuperH SH5:
https://gcc.gnu.org/gcc-3.1/changes.html

But GCC 3.0 already had IA64 (Itanium) support, 2.95.3 had powerpc64,
hppa 2.0, and mips64 support, and GCC 2.5.8 already supported the DEC
Alpha (I couldn't find when that port was first done).

So I don't know the precise answer, but it's more than 20 years ago.
