So... what is it?
I think the earliest is the AMD Opteron (2003).
From a "earliest in each family" perspective, I think the answer is:
AMD: AMD Opteron (2003). Intel: Intel Xeon (Nocona) (2004) VIA: VIA Nano (2008)
Excluding Itanium (thank god), are there any other early x86 64bit CPUs that I'm missing or any that we explicitly no longer support?

Not that I recall. We should support any x86-64 machine. If there's one we don't work on, it's likely a bug.

I still have one of the original Opteron boards here, it is supported fine (though heats the room). AFAIK there aren't any true x86_64 CPUs that we don't support.
