Assuming you meant __LP64__...

For gcc, it's been defined since 2003 (gcc 3.3):
https://gcc.gnu.org/git/?p=gcc.git;a=commit;h=0bdab2d89e28ca4dc84f8f0fafed85a4822bca49

For clang, it's been defined since before its first public release:
http://llvm.org/viewvc/llvm-project/cfe/trunk/lib/Basic/Targets.cpp?r1=38978&r2=38987&pathrev=161685

So gcc 3.1 and 3.2 didn't define it, but everything newer does.
