Fixes #5913.

Could you add a test?

I think that's more trouble than it's worth. The map already has tests and this change is just about what I consider undefined behaviour.

this change is just about what I consider undefined behaviour.

If I understand correctly, previously you could call Put incorrectly, and then if you catched the error that it throws, any subsequent calls to Put would hang. Did I get that right? I agree it's a corner case, but one that a user ran into and that seems easy to test. Why not add a test to prevent it from re-occurring?

Your understanding is correct. I'm not against adding the test, but I’m not convinced its worth my time.
