Unfortunately they are targetted for the next release of the widget set 
and hence aren't there yet.

They are quite simple to create yourself.  Create an xwt file:

<import name="xwt.widget" />
<template thisbox="frame" colour="#d4d0c8" hpad="20" vpad="20">

     ok = $ok;
     cancel = $cancel;
     $ok._action = $cancel._action = function() { thisbox.Close = true; }

     <button id="ok" text="OK" />
     <box />
     <button id="cancel" text="Cancel" />

</template>

Then from the window which pops up the dialogue:

var dialogue = xwt.newBox().apply( "path.to.dialogue" );

dialogue.ok._action = function() { ... }
dialogue.ok._cancel = function() { ... }
