A default warrant is a criminal arrest warrant like any other, even if the original offense was minor, the default on the court appearance is a serious issue. Like for any other arrest warrant, all states will arrest you on it and contact Massachusetts (or whatever state issued the warrant) for extradition. You will need to work with a criminal attorney in Massachusetts to cure the default.
Unless the arrest warrant specifically states that the issuing agency will extradite then you can not be arrested for it.
The warrant is basically null unless they change their mind about extradition or you get caught in their state, or one they will extradite from. The local Police will basically detain or arrest and release you when they find out the other state wont extradite. The warrant will usually say "Will not extradite from ______" Most states have 10 minutes to find out if a warrant is valid, after that they are required to release you.

Most states will not extradite on a misdemeanor warrant due to the expense they would incur for a relatively minor charge. Some states WILL if the distance is not that great, i.e. within 100 miles etc.
