The linear alpha-prime corrections and the field redefinition ambiguities arestudied for half-BPS singular backgrounds representing a wrapped fundamentalstring. It is showed that there exist schemes in which the inclusion of all thelinear alpha-prime corrections converts these singular solutions to black holeswith a regular horizon for which the modified Hawking-Bekenstein entropy is inagreement with the statistical entropy.Comment: 22 pages JHEP; new discussions and more details added to section
