Hugin needs information on some parameters of the images to be able to 
compute others. Usually it gets ordinary photographs which are centered 
(not cropped, not asymmetrically cropped) and contain (exif) information 
about the focal length (and multiplier) from which the HFOV (horizontal 
field of view) can be determined.
So one assumption is that the eye point (correct english term?) is in 
the centre of the image. If this is not the case you have to optimize 
for d and e which are the x and y offsets of the eye point from the 
centre of the present crop.
Another assumption is that images of identical pixel size and exif 
information have identical geometry. If your 2 crops have the same size 
but are cropped from different regions of the original you would have to 
assign them different lens numbers manually so that d and e can be 
optimized separately. (If size and/or exif info are different hugin 
assigns different lens numbers automatically)
A third assumption is of course that the exif info contained is true. In 
a case where the cropped images still contain the exif info the computed 
HFOV is not true but too great. So you would have to optimize for HFOV, 
too - which unfortunately is only possible with 360° panoramas. You 
would have to calculate a corrected crop factor yourself and enter it. 
But I am not sure how you would calculate it for an asymmetric crop.
