You might also consider this version:

sub bukShuffle {
    my( $r, $t );
    $r = $_ + rand( @array - $_ ),
    $t =           $array[ $_ ],
    $array[ $_ ] = $array[ $r ],
    $array[ $r ] = $t
    for 0 .. $#array;
}

And I offer this method (drawing heavily upon a post by Abigail-II) for checking your modifications produce fair results:

my %h;
bukShuffle( @array = qw[a b c d ] ), ++$h{ join ' ', @array } for 1 ..
+ 1e6;

pp %h;

Which for the code above produces:
