The file is part of linux-c7-libpng:

% pkg which /compat/linux/usr/lib/libpng15.so.15
/compat/linux/usr/lib/libpng15.so.15 was installed by package 
linux-c7-libpng-1.5.13_2

(The 'pkg which' should work on your system, even when the file is missing).
The port linux-c7-libpng is a dependency of linux-c7-gtk2.
Since some /compat/linux files are unexpectedly missing, it could be a 
good idea to reinstall any linux-c7 ports you are using.
