What about gimp-crop?  Do a "Search by Name" for "crop" in the DB Browser to
see its arguments.  If you actually need the dialog itself, then you'll have
to create one of your own (its not that complex a dialog box - you could do
it with glade probably, or even by hand) and then pass the values to gimp-crop.
