This is not a bug.

You have a NVRAM that has not been created correctly. When you start the game, goto the DIP SWITCHES menu (Hit TAB then select that menu) and look for the entry called "WORLD RECORDS". To properly create one, you need to change the status of that DIP to "Erase on Reset". When selected and your MAME is restarted or reset - goto the menu again and change the status back to "Don't Erase". You should then have a valid .NV file set up in your NVRAM folder. Please note that your other records will go to default status as well - it's a clean sweep and installation of the default records.

Although this isn't in the MAME FAQ yet - it probably should be. It's mentioned in the MAMEINFO.DAT file as a SETUP procedure.
