Get around or avoid (10)

I believe the answer is:

circumvent

This clue is a double definition.

'get around' is the first definition.
(thesaurus)

'avoid' is the second definition.
(circumventing is a kind of avoiding)

(Other definitions for circumvent that I've seen before include "Find a way around" , "Go round" .)

I've seen this clue in the Sydney Morning Herald.
