It seems that if I take the Win32::GUI way, I'll have to coninue the development on a 32 bit WinXP VM to get a running app in EXE format.

Win32::FileOP was the module that wouldn't install on 64 bit Perl, not Win32::GUI. You posted this after I posted this example of how to do a File-Save dialog on 64 bit Perl so maybe you didn't notice but Win32::GUI works for 64 bit Perl. Another option is to use the portable version of 32 bit Strawberry Perl on whatever machine you want to use. The 32 bit version of Perl runs on 64 bit Windows machines.
