You can avoid this by disabling antialiasing. I don't know how you are
drwaing your circle. If you use the EllipseSelect tool and fill the
selection, disable antialiasing in the EllipseSelect tool options. If
you are stroking the selection, use the Pencil to stroke.

It does not do this if you change the Interpolation type to
Nearest-Neighbor in the Preferences dialog.
