Beginner Multiprocessing Question

I'm trying to run a really simple multiprocessing script but I get an error that says "AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'f'. *See script below. Every time I try to run any sample script w/ a multiprocessing process, I get the same error. I'm on Windows 7, with the stock Python 2.6 install that comes with ArcMap 10.0. I also tried this on a machine with 10.1 and Python 2.7 and got the same error.

I got the script from here:

http://docs.python.org/2/library/multiprocessing.html

*The script is:

******
from multiprocessing import Process

def f(name):
print 'hello', name

if __name__ == '__main__':
p = Process(target=f, args=('bob',))
p.start()
p.join()
*******

Full error output
