I'm quite sure it' a bug.

As a workaround I'd delete (instrumentCueName . "Piccolo") from
\addInstrumentDefinition and put it in manually:

\version "2.16.0"

\addInstrumentDefinition #"piccolo"
  #`((instrumentName . "Piccolo")
     (shortInstrumentName . "Pc.")
     ;(instrumentCueName . "Piccolo")
     (midiInstrument . "piccolo"))

\new Staff
<<
\partcombine {
        c''1 d'' e''
        \instrumentSwitch "piccolo"
        \set instrumentCueName = #"piccolo"
        c'' c''
        } {
        e''1 e'' d'' a'' g''
        }
