Assuming you've checked the bundle to ensure that libpixbufloader-png.so is in fact in that path, the usual cause of this problem is attempting to run an auxiliary program from Contents/Resources/bin instead of Contents/MacOS. @executable_path starts from the path of the binary that starts the linker-chain.
