Murphy at work yet again. :-( Duh, the rule is simple: use "un-" when the stem is Germanic, "in-/im-" when it is Romance, a-/an- when it is Greek. Except for the exceptions, of course, e.g.: * unfeasible, untenable, unpredictable, unmanageable, unsociable, unsanitary, unsatisfactory (from Romance stems) * unsuccessful, "un-" and "-ful" are Germanic while "success" is Romance * unstoppable, "un-" and "stop" are Germanic while "-able" is Romance Now, "un-", "in-", "im-", "a-" and "an-" all come from the common Proto-Indo-European prefix "*m-", so confusing them again after seven millennia might be just fitting.
