Which version of Linux do you have?
 
I was going to say to need to install libpng, but you already have it..unless it is looking for a newer or older version.

when building xine, many times it is necessary to install
the *-devel version of a library package because the xine
configure script is expecting to find a special configuration
script provided by the *-devel package.
 
in other words, try installing the libpng-devel package
and try again..
