As far as I can ascertain pdfcrop is part of the tetex.

There seems to be a discussion about the problem here -

I wonder what horrendous problems I will get if I backport tetex from current to 14.2. I'm thinking that I should I leave this to the experts to resolve. I'm happy that it works on Current.
