It is creating the geometry columns. But the attribute table is not refreshed. When I remove and add the same layer once again, I can see the columns

I would propose to close this, because the tools works, it is just the table that is not refreshed. This issue affects also other tools, so is a more general one and would deserve a feature ticket (like "add a reload button in table of attributes"). If you don't agree please reopen this ticket.

Now (in 0878fca) it works as in 1.8, the fields map are refreshed. Which other tools are you refering to ?

I can't remember now, but may be this patch fixed them too :) Let see if in the future we are able to spot this issue again in other tools, hopefully not.
