Try dropping -B option.
By reading src/agrep.c, it seems -B overrides --max-errors.
This is the command line parsing code:
case 'B':
/* Select only the records which have the best match. */
best_match = 1;
break;
case 'E':
/* Set the maximum number of errors allowed for a record to match. */
match_params.max_cost = atoi(optarg);
max_cost_set = 1;
break;
and this is where match_params.max_cost is overridden:
if (best_match)
match_params.max_cost = best_cost;
