I don't understand where your 'subject1' sequence:

subject1 = "GTTGGTGCAAACATTAGTTCTTCTGTTGGTGCAACCTTTG"

came from.

Modulo that, everything looks fine.

In my hands, your vcountPattern call finds 41 40-letter elements
of 'seqs', all equal to GATCGGAAGAGCTCGTATGCCGTCTTCTGCTTGAAACAAA,
that match your 41-letter pattern, subject to your

        max.mismatch=1, with.indels=TRUE'

They are all equal to your pattern with its first letter deleted.

I haven't looked closely, but I don't see a reason to doubt this
result.

The following calls would seem to be the sanity checks you want.
They at least confirm the 41 fuzzy matches.

[1] 1

dear all:
     Using vcountPattern, i found some matched sequences.
but those are not similar to the pattern.
     see such coding

rm(list=ls())
reads <- readFastq(fastqfile);#downloaded from
http://biocluster.ucr.edu/~tbackman/query.fastq
seqs <- sread(reads);
PCR2rc<-DNAString("AGATCGGAAGAGCTCGTATGCCGTCTTCTGCTTGAAACAAA")
result <- vcountPattern(PCR2rc, seqs, max.mismatch=1, min.mismatch=0,
with.indels=TRUE, algorithm="indels")
reads <- reads[result]
seqs <- sread(reads)
sum(result)
     then using countPattern, i found they are really not match

subject1 = "GTTGGTGCAAACATTAGTTCTTCTGTTGGTGCAACCTTTG"
result <- countPattern(PCR2rc, subject1, max.mismatch=1, min.mismatch=0,
with.indels=TRUE)
[1] 0
