        System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window win = new OldWindow(source.Handle);
        return win;
    }

    private class OldWindow : System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window
    {
        private readonly System.IntPtr _handle;
        public OldWindow(System.IntPtr handle)
        {
            _handle = handle;
        }

        #region IWin32Window Members
        System.IntPtr System.Windows.Forms.IWin32Window.Handle
        {
            get { return _handle; }
        }
        #endregion
    }
}

And to actually use it:

var dlg = new FolderBrowserDialog();
System.Windows.Forms.DialogResult result = dlg.ShowDialog(this.GetIWin32Window());
