Nick Coghlan added the comment:

Rerunning main in the subprocess has always been a slightly dubious feature
of multiprocessing, but IIRC it's a necessary hack to ensure pickle
compatibility for things defined in __main__. Using "runpy.run_path" would
be a better solution, but we'll need to add the "target" parameter that
missed the beta1 deadline.
