Stl map simple insert memory issue

Not clear what is going on: I have the 2 following lines that works in other parts of the code:

map<short,string> params;
params.insert( std::pair<short, string>(5, string("ee")) );

when I put it into my routine, I get this valgring error right at the beginning, and the program crashes. Not totally clear why it ends up in the string destructor. I may have something wrong with my binary but I am a little confused why it happens right at the beginning and why is it in the string destructor ? Does what is herebelow MEANS that I must look for the error somewhere else ?

==2052== Conditional jump or move depends on uninitialised value(s)
==2052==    at 0x6073EC2: std::basic_string<char, std::char_traits<char>, std::allocator<char> >::~basic_string() (in /usr/lib/libstdc++.so.6.0.13)
==2052==    by 0x42428B: std::pair<short const, std::string>::~pair() (stl_pair.h:68)
==2052==    by 0x4B99FB: NLGSearch::Search::Calc() (Search.cpp:409)

Note that it goes through if I use map<short,short> Thank you.

--------------------------------------------------- EDIT

This is used right at the beginning of a method. I guess I have the answer to my question, I have to look at somewhere else in my code...

It works for me. How does this program differ from the one you are testing?

#include <map>
#include <string>

int main () {
  using std::map;
  using std::string;

  map<short,string> params;
  params.insert( std::pair<short, string>(5, string("ee")) );
}

gcc 4.4.3 on Ubuntu 10.04.3 LTS. No complaints from valgrind.
