choose() will not be implemented in MacPerl 5.6.1. It was dropped from GUSI 2. There are other APIs that can be used instead; for sockets, you can use the regular socket functions. For file/folder stuff, you can use Mac::Navigation or Mac::StandardFile. Although, Mac::Navigation was not included in the 5.6.1 beta 1, I think, but it will be included. In any event, if you have a problem and don't report it, it cannot be fixed or otherwise addressed; please file a bug report when you have problems. In other news, Joseph, I added a feature you requested last year: the next release of MacPerl will have a "Stop Script" Apple event.
