Not bad...

+debug already uses -DCMAKE_TYPE=Debug, so there's no need for different +symbols variants. Also, the difference between Debug and RelWithDebInfo is a bit more complicated than you appear to think. There's indeed a difference in the amount of available debug info, but that's because the former doesn't use optimisation (which doesn't allow full debug information). It's thus different from the debug level selector in Xcode.
