Like this?

#-------------------------------------------------
# specify build options; see each option below
# for details
#-------------------------------------------------

# uncomment next line if you are building for a 64-bit target
# PTR64 = 1

# uncomment next line if you are building for a big-endian target
# BIGENDIAN = 1

# uncomment next line to build expat as part of MAME build
BUILD_EXPAT = 1

# uncomment next line to build zlib as part of MAME build
BUILD_ZLIB = 1

# uncomment next line to include the symbols
SYMBOLS = 1

# specify symbols level or leave commented to use the default
# (default is SYMLEVEL = 2 normally; use 1 if you only need backtrace)
# SYMLEVEL = 2

# uncomment next line to dump the symbols to a .sym file
DUMPSYM = 1

# uncomment next line to include profiling information from the compiler
# PROFILE = 1

# uncomment next line to generate a link map for exception handling in windows

# (default is OPTIMIZE = 3 normally, or OPTIMIZE = 0 with symbols)
# OPTIMIZE = 3

//////////////////// Edit.

Screw that. MAME64.exe gotten to a size of 512mb. I rather stick to the normal make way.
