You can place the function in another file, but you need to use the
'file' parameter on your batch array. And there in lies a problem I see:
$batch = array(
'operations' => array(
array('mymodule_batch_task', array($var1, $var2)),
),
'finished' => 'mymodule_batch_finished',
'title' => t('batch process'),
'init_message' => t('starting.'),
'progress_message' => t('Processed @current out of @total.'),
'error_message' => t('encountered an error.'),
'file' => 'mymodule.admin.inc',
);
batch_set($batch);
It should be 'file' =>
drupal_get_path('module','mymodule').'/mymodule.admin.inc'
File needs the path on batches, unlike when you use it on a menu or theme item.

Undocumented, AFAIK, but your processing function has to be in the
