Every time we fix a bug, we add a corresponding test to make sure that it
doesn't pop up again. In this case, take a look in
numpy/core/tests/test_regression.py:
def check_random_shuffle(self, level=rlevel):
"""Ticket #374"""
a = N.arange(5).reshape((5,1))
b = a.copy()
N.random.shuffle(b)
assert_equal(sorted(b),a)
