Withdraw from Combat when Nauseated?

[Hurtoc]

A character is nauseated due to finding himself in a Stinking Cloud and failing the Fort save. He is adjacent to a foe that threatens his square.

Can the character withdraw, moving away from the threatened square without provoking an AoO?

Withdraw is a full round action, and reviewing Nausea in the d20srd.org Condition Summary, I see this:
"Nauseated: Experiencing stomach distress. Nauseated creatures are unable to attack, cast spells, concentrate on spells, or do anything else requiring attention. The only action such a character can take is a single move action per turn."

Sounds like you can only do a single move action, which prevents a full round withdraw correct?

Correct.

Restricted Withdraw
If you are limited to taking only a standard action each round you can withdraw as a standard action. In this case, you may move up to your speed (rather than up to double your speed).

So it looks like you can.

Nope- a restricted withdraw is a standard action, but while nauseated you can only take a move action.

Dammit, missed that...

I guess you gotta suck up the AoOs then...

At least you can still be Defensive and/or Tumble away, right?

Tumble yes, but fighting defensively or total defense requires at least a standard action.

Somehow, tumbling while nauseated sounds like a BAD idea...

If this question has anything to do with Sea Urchin poison in a certain low level adventure, I'd be tempted to change it to one round nauseated, then one minute sickened rather than one minute nauseated.
