It's pretty bad.

 

Try looking around the body for the sweet spot, I've had cases where it's above the head etc.  If you have a group member who wasn't actually present for the death they might also have more success as their client is likely to render the ragdoll in its actual location as I believe the problem is mainly the ragdoll moving from the actual death spot.

 

Relogging doesn't really help, though it's some times worth a try.

open the vicinity window near the body , drag their stuff to the left of the vicinity widow and it should all drop next to their body , and that's when you can loot it !

Sometimes this is not a bug.

When you kill someone or encounter an unmolested corpse, you are given the option (scrollwheel) of 'hide body'.

This action destroys the gear (by preventing access to the loot contained) in/on the corpse.  The corpse however remains.

This action is final, and irreversible.

 

I do this frequently if i find corpses that have gear that i cannot take, or when i am done looting a victim of my activities, so as to deny access to the loot left behind to anyone, and a host of other more minor advantages i gain by the action (like slowing anyone down that may be in the area, as they must try - and fail - to access the loot).
