I was under the impression that the original Raspberry Pi also used the LLP64 model, or similar, and that had started of Torsten (tboegi) on the extensive early work on this. I was just looking at the zlib parts following the Git Merge.

Torsten was compiling for Rasbian (gcc (Raspbian 6.3.0-18+rpi1+deb9u1) 6.3.0 20170516)
