Whenever possible, you should use absolute paths to libraries.
CMP0015 actually does not change this.
The only thing it does, is that if you use a relative path, e.g. "mylibs/",
then with CMP0015 set to OLD, this will be interpreted as
${CMAKE_CURRENT_BINARY_DIR}/mylibs/, while with CMOP0015 set to NEW, it will
be interpreted as ${CMAKE_CURRENT_SOURCE_DIR}/mylibs/
