that's easy :

--- truc.rb ------------------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env ruby

require 'osx/aeosa'

as="tell application \"Finder\"
        activate
        set my_folder to version choose folder
        set my_folder to POSIX path of my_folder
end tell
my_folder"
puts OSX.do_osascript(as).to_rbobj
------------------------------------------------------------------------

provided you have installed RubyAEOSA.

other solution if you don't want to install RubyAEOSA.
u'll have to files one "choose_folder.applescript" call by the other
"run_applescript.rb" :

--- choose_folder.applescript ------------------------------------------
tell application "Finder"
        activate
        set my_folder to version choose folder
        set my_folder to POSIX path of my_folder
end tell
my_folder
------------------------------------------------------------------------

--- run_applescript.rb -------------------------------------------------
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
puts r=`osascript choose_folder.applescript`.chomp
------------------------------------------------------------------------
